Greeting


Hello!
You're home
I've been waiting

You open your mouth to speak,
Which turns into a wide yawn
Then you stretch into an arch

Hello!
You're home
I’ve been waiting

While waiting and listening out
You're eyes drifted closed
And you curled up to sleep

I just dozed
For a little while
Until you came home

You were listening out
For the sound of footsteps
For the keys rattling

Welcome home!

You greet me
Rolling over at my feet
Fur rubbing across the carpet
