The cats seem friendlier to each other 
And more ready for snuggles 
Since we moved 

Somehow all our possessions have enough room 
And we seem to remember where
We placed them mostly 

It is easier to avoid the news of the day 
Even though a passing helicopter 
Might be part of it 

The houses are less lonely with lights in their windows 
We walk the avenues seeking new places 
And confidently find our way back 

Our constant motion a sense of arrival
