A Panda Naps Today

Sprawled out

on a grassy mound,

curled up under

a tree,

or up a tree

wedged

between limbs

anywhere—

a personal oasis.

Cheating time itself

like you’ve

cracked the code to life,

hit the reset button.

Waking up

from a solid nap

the world is fresher

and there

are some ’boo

shoot snacks

calling your name.
