Pup’s dream

   I feel the warm sun on my fur. I hear whimpering noises around me. There is a feeling like waking from a dream, that feeling of awareness just before my eyes have opened and what is around me registers. I feel movement against me. I hear another whimper. I am lying on my side as I open my eyes and look beyond my muzzle.
   
I see the movement of fur and a sudden twitching. I focus on that movement. It is a small sharp ear on another. I try to roll up on my side and flail my legs for I am not use to this movement and or position. I get my legs under me and sit up. I feel wobbly as muscles twitch to balance them selves. It is an odd feeling, that of a new body.
   
I have not been to this dream or vision in a long time. I look over and see others here, other wolf pups, sleeping nestled against the she wolf.
   
She is a gray wolf. She has a brownish tint to her fur, in places black fur and her other body fur is cream colored with golden brown on the legs. She is watching me and watching something else beyond me. She shifts her weight forward and brings her nose close to mine and touches her nose to mine.
   
I feel, and smell the warm air from her nostrils over my face. I close my eyes as the sensation moves over my fur. The odor is pleasant and familiar to me. It triggers the feeling of security as she is sniffing my face. A moist, warm and soft object moving over the side of my face, eyes and muzzle momentarily startles me. I open my eyes to see the pink tongue recede back into her mouth and emerge again to repeat that felt movement. I lean into it. I feel the gentle pulling of heir as the tongue moves across my face again and again.   The warmth of the feeling and the comfort that it brings. She stops and I open my eyes to see her drawing back as she is watching me.
   
I feel the sensation of another sniffing me from behind. I lean my head back to see a muzzle and nostrils at my eyes. I feel the sensation again at the back of my neck that comes up over my head across my eyes and up my muzzle. I am feeling joy and warmth as the licking is being repeated several times by the one that is behind me. A feeling of comfort and joy washes over me in this moment.
   
I feel myself being picked up from the one from behind me and the gentle support of my body by strong flat hands. I turn and watch as I am being carried closer to him.
  
I watch him as the muzzle melts back into the face and the heir fades back into the skin. His bright gray eyes that watch me that are framed by black and gray heir. I feel the fingers rubbing the back of my neck and behind the ears from gentle hands, and with happiness and familiarity from that touch. I am brought up close to touch his nose to mine and feel the gentle pressure at the side of my face as it is licked and in joy I return the licks to the nose and the face.
   
I realize I am sitting before the computer and that these images are gone in that fleeting moment and I return the present.
As these images fade to be replaced by a longing to be else where……
