This morning, I discovered a new feeling…

This morning, I discovered a new feeling…
No, no, it was two…
They gave me happy reactions…
Feelings about the wild and the calm

The wild is exciting because it brings adventure…
Adventure that makes me think of my great, great, great grandpuppy…
Rumor has it that he was a short-legged, spotted hyena…
They say I have his bark!

Oh, the feeling of the wild!
It feels like that is where I am meant to be…
But too much wilderness can take a toll…
There are so many things that bite, sting and snap.

The other feeling is quite the opposite…

Ahhh…to be calm…
Lazy and yet skilled…
Like a winged lion…
Who today, has decided not to fly…

Mmm, another nap…
So many rabbits to chase…
My butler giving soft belly rubs…
Curled next to my favorite toys.

The calm brings me consolation…
A break from continually running and fetching…
I don’t know which feeling is the best…
All my feelings are gifts, oh my, what a wonderful collection.

I love you,

Annie
