Honey

Her fur glimmers with brightness in the shimmering sun.
Hard eyes follow you wherever you go.
The soft stuffing of her body weighing her down towards the earth.
Ears like stars
Always up in the sky
Her gentle expression sinks deep into my heart.
Like a stone hitting the water.
Paws like velvet.
Slips out of my grasp
Such as a seal gliding through the waves.
Smooth honey colour faded.
Baby pink tongue flowing from her mouth.
Her thin fluffy tail trails behind her.
She has a heart of gold.
Light.
But warm.
I imagine her
Free in the world.
Nothing would stop her.
Nothing ever will.
