After watching the sunset I curl up on Sallyann's side of the bed and sleep.
Sometimes I dream of humans chasing me around a ship,
or Sallyann taking me for a walk in the sunshine.
Other nights I worry about falling overboard and climbing up the pylons over very sharp barnacles.
It's hard to fall asleep when your view from the porthole
looks like this:
and when annoying dolphins play around the edge of the boat.
I like the dream where I'm the only cat on an island inhabited by one legged pelicans.
and the one where I'm in the tower at Treasure Island.
Don't tell the Captain that occasionally I dream on being on other tug boats,
and aboard pirate ships.
My most unforgettable nightmare is me sailing on a beautiful day on the Gulf of Mexico. The dream starts our all warm and cozy then I see Reflection dead ahead.
That startles me and I get up and do my business.
The End
