 Earth's Deep Lap

It never fails
To bring a smile
Cascading veils
Sweet tears a while

Eight legs, not four
Four eyes from two
Curiosity on trembling legs once more
New creation's dream come true.

Hug fresh fur
Unspoiled and soft
What else can lure
To stall and loft?

Tomorrow's meadows will await
For run and leap and grassy nap
Wandering through the open gate
To rest secure in  Earth's deep lap.
