Little Sentinel
Pacing property perimeter
How he knew the boundaries
I do not comprehend

Tiny Tracker
Stolen hawk eyes spying
How he saw it between the green
I do not see

Scrupulous Stalker
Absolute silence in velvet feet
How he made no sound
I cannot tell

Avid Hunter
Leaping with swords drawn
How he endured the gore
I cannot stomach

Sentient Sedative
Vibrating at my side
How he calmed my consciousness
He was not aware

Amusement Engineer
Accidental flipping on stairs
How silly sulking looked
He was too proud to admit

Noble Brother
Accepting inferior rank
That we were dissimilar species
He did not understand

Mortal Mammal
Predator becoming prey
How deeply I miss him
He must know

I know
He knows
