He sits.
Watching my every move.
In quiet anticipation
As I brush through my eyelashes.
A slow motor churns inside as the last brush
crosses my cheeks.
As though a signal to approach
He jumps.
Usually isolated, intaking with a slow
Deliberate blink.
To be approached & given attention
From the pettiest of lovely creatures.
A little drool drips from his incisors
And falls unheeded in sublime happiness.
I nestle onto his head
Extracting his claws from my sweater shoulder.
Who needs anything else once you
Have love from a tiny panther?!
