Battle’s ode to summer

I need to rest in anticipation
of the oncoming summer
I need the rest, of the day to think
How I love this late winter sun’s heat
Dreaming of chasing and barking
As squirrels scurry and chipmunks flurry
And I, the king of this bench
With the world beneath my feet
I need to rest so that I may rule another day
And when the time comes, I’ll be ready to play
Okay, it’s time to sleep.
