While You Are Out

Do you ever wonder what they do...
or where they like to wait,
while you are out?
I wonder if they get anxious,
or if they simply sleep all day.
Maybe they settle down right where you said
 good-bye,
so as to be ready and waiting when you return.

It's probably most comforting to know,
that even though they have a bed, your pillow is their favorite.
If they're lucky,
they might have a sunny terrace or patio.

but for some, a window for two will do.
Funny how they always know...
when the time is near.
They know to be quiet and listen,

and to keep a watchful eye.
Because they know the familiar sounds of your arrival, they know you're home & they want to know all about your day!
