Ode to a Pug in a Blanket

A movie diva?
Titan of the tinsel screen?
Pug in a blanket.

In the event of
inflammatory cuteness,
wrap tightly and wait.

Nothing can escape
your round eyes and solemn gaze,
watching for cookies.

So much dignity!
Even dressed as a chicken,
you inspire joy.

Small caterpiggle,
wrapped in a sleepy cocoon.
Ha ha, they caught you.

As inspired by Deborah Christensen:

Open Your Heart
