Shanti's Purr
Question: "What does you're animal do to calm you down?"
I'm sure there are many stories but write a poem about it.
--Just the fact that he exists can answer this question, but his purr also helps to ground me when I am feeling anxious. And the poem....
A rumble starts up slow and easy
Soft fur rubs against my leg
Then flops into a roll
Paws in the air
He wriggles his head
The rumble getting louder
As my hand makes contact
And gives his stomach a rub
When I stand and move away
He maneuvers up and follows me
Like a shadow never letting me out of his sight.
He's my alarm clock with four legs and a tail
Calling hello at my door
Jumping excitedly when I emerge from my room
His innocence shining in his eyes
Still, when he stalks mischievously -
I hum the theme to the Pink Panther
And watch his tail curl up and around
I swear he winks at me.
Then jumps up on the stool
to look me square in the eye
Before I wrap my arms around him
For one very big hug.
He's my big boy
Shanti.
