The Jones (day 828)

To you we just quiver
But to us we are champions
We have the ultimate
In safety and defense

Imagine, a ball of spikes
Impregnable
Undesirable
Very non-tasty

But our noses we each
Have such pinkness delight
And toes with our claws
Soft bellies underneath

And in our deep sleep
We curl into a ball
Relaxing our quills
Exposing a petite nose

We are a peaceful bunch
Sleeping all day
We rummage around
Without much of a noise

And if we are lucky
If our owners feel
To let us roam free
We roam wild and happy!

Miss Flower Light (day 665)

Oh my stars and heavenly angels
I’ve fluttered down to delightful petals
Can you match my imagination in colour?
The garden, it’s fresh
Spilling over onto grass
Roaming over mountains
With one tiny seedling
And filling our noses
Of such sweet sweet nectar
Harvested in spells so thick
Even sunshine pauses here a while
With daisies, and pansies
Tulips and violets
Poppeys and bleeding hearts
Such beautiful glory
For my days on this earth
Every day filled with laughter
Tickling my nose and
Infecting my colour
Spreading my wings
As I take dizzied flight
Lost in such intoxication
That float me on
Into the day of love
Oh my stars and heavenly angels
