Slow days

For days now She has shut herself away in Her studio and painted. So when She sat to check Her email we pounced. And then we thought. What have we done in the last few days? We have slept. We have chased the mice. We have curled in sunny places on soft cushions and collected the sun's warmth in our ginger coats. Then tired from all this effort we have slept again.
Maybe tomorrow we will walk. Until then we rest while the full moon rides across the sky, and we wait for the sun to spill the light of day again.
