Daisy in the Golden Room

a rabbit with golden ears
licks my blue jeans not knowing
what else to do in these days
and nights of old age.
glassy blue eyes that no longer see,
her small groans and gentle
sighs punctuate the night
waking me from a light sleep
like that of a new mother
not yet sure her new baby
will get through the night.
