sleeping together

all night she wiggles
beside you with
a slight snore,
her warm body curled
against your curl.
you can feel
her dream as she
trembles, then relaxes,
almost a smile
on her face, eyes
closed tight.
as deep in sleep
as sleep
can be.
if only she was this
sweet all the time,
not barking
and licking
your face
when the sun comes up,
pawing your chest
to go out.
