Night Whispers

Your gentle "Goodnight" lingered softly in the dimness... I stayed very still, listening to the sleepy quiet settle through the house. When everything grew dark and calm, I crept over to the little stack of books on the floor. Tucking my tail close, I pulled a soft knitted coaster over my lap like a tiny quilt. The room breathed around me. I gave a tiny, contented sigh... and closed my thoughts for the night.
