Gizmo

His fur,

a pure white aura,

augments his face

like the mane

of an albino lion.

His eyes,
blue gemstones,

glow like tropical waters

under the light

of the sun.

Afternoons

he takes his rest,

savors the comfort

of the pillows

in his basket.

Dozing,

he knows that all

is as it should be

in his demesne

protected by Bastet. - Jeff Barnes
