Beast are you sleeping?
I gaze upon your beauty-gently entwining my body with yours
Wrapping your limbs in mine
Feeling the softness of your fur
Hearing your soft, slow, rhythmic snores
In your throat the deep rumble of your purrs
Beast are you sleeping?
I gaze into your face as your ears and whiskers twitch -I try to imagine your dreamscape with the colors both vibrant and rich
Do you run through the tall grass wild and free?
Or do you leap high into the air off of a narrow precipice
Splashing down into a crystal clear blue lagoon fathoms deep?
Yes my beast-weary from the hunt-exhausted from chasing-drained from raging-sleep
And dream of whatever slumbering beasts dream
Until the time you are called upon again
Sleep your sweet, peaceful slumber
While I stare at you in awe
Eyes misty ogling you with childlike wonder
I gaze upon your beauty-gently entwining my body with yours
Wrapping your limbs in mine
Feeling the softness of your fur
Hearing your soft, slow, rhythmic snores
In your throat the deep rumble of your purrs
Beast are you sleeping?
I gaze into your face as your ears and whiskers twitch -I try to imagine your dreamscape with the colors both vibrant and rich
Do you run through the tall grass wild and free?
Or do you leap high into the air off of a narrow precipice
Splashing down into a crystal clear blue lagoon fathoms deep?
Yes my beast-weary from the hunt-exhausted from chasing-drained from raging-sleep
And dream of whatever slumbering beasts dream
Until the time you are called upon again
Sleep your sweet, peaceful slumber
While I stare at you in awe
Eyes misty ogling you with childlike wonder

I really enjoyed this, it was freeing and fresh..
.and yes my body felt the vibration of purrs
and the field underneath my paws.
You took me there, thank you!
