the cat purrs and the moonlight peeps in through the curtains
as the fire pops and cracks, filling the room with warmth
as the world begins to fall asleep
Another Sunday evening finds us at home
cuddling close together
couch potatoes huddled and bundled tight
wrapped in a fuzzy blanket and covered in fur
You sip on red wine as a movie flickers on the screen
I belly laugh and the cat snores obnoxiously
Times like these feel as though there is no one else on Earth
but us,
our family
safe and sound and completely content
Moments like this remind me that nothing else,
no one else, matters
but you and me
and our snoring cat
