And yet, there was a reflection.
For Six Word Saturday.

No question for a cat. Fences are at most obstacles to be traversed.
A bit different with dogs.

And – believe it or not – we humans were the ones behind the fence. And the shepherd at the back of this herd kept shouting: “Close the gate, close the gate! They’ll overrun you!”
“The wide world is all about you: you can fence yourselves in, but you cannot forever fence it out.”
– J. R. R. Tolkien

That’s Henry, the cat who shares our flat. This picture of him in the tree in our backyard was taken on the first day he was ever allowed out.
This is my fiftteenth square for Becky’s April Square Challenge.

“In wisdom gathered over time I have found that every experience is a form of exploration.”

I’ve used this group before. It’s a sculpture of, I think, eight sleepers. There is space to sit next or opposite them but I don’t think living people can really relax close to them.

This is part of a group depicting the night in the garden Gethsemane when all the disciples fell asleep while Jesus prayed.

The way animals sleep, one can only be envious.

And what do turtles dream of?

Cats of course, are champion sleepers. This one slept next to a busy road and had made this flower pot his own. A potted cat, so to speak.

It doesn’t look comfortable but it must be – at the moment this is our cats favourite place for a snooze.

And this picture is – for me – pure bliss. Falling asleep while reading a book … without the dummy, for preference though.

Hey, Kermit! you lost something there!

Demure and bristling, at the same time.

Baby’s got blue eyes.

Eyeing you, eyeing me.

What am I seeing?

And now it is over to you!
