"Believe that we will"


Poem Artwork

Sickbed with Cat

In the end all that
I have is this cat
It is only he
With me now I see
A culture of two
One might say (I do)

Only us as we
Attempt to contend
However we can
Odd couple we are
Fat cat and thin man
With what fate might send

Whatever it sends
Freddie Noodles is
My friend I am his
We two are true friends
We have come this far
And we will get by

I do not know how
Nor am I sure why
Yet not knowing still
Believe that we will
Survive how hard fall
Fell this year somehow

We struggle each day
To get from it all
Some sense of fair play
In life through this loss
Detritus and dross
Entangling our way

But we will get through
Because we have to

Nice to have a friend to count on through good times and bad. Cats better than most people. :) Give FreddieNoodles a (((HUGS))) and a purr for me. Well done, Steven, hope you feel better, soon.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
