Cat Size Bed

Cat Size Bed

Share my bed

a queen size for you to purr

Not anymore

You are gone

I should wonder no more

You are not here

I miss your soft fur

eager to hear you meow,

proudly meow

Give me an earful

sweet pea

once again please

But away you went

leaving your beds alone in April cold

You found a sweet spot

to start it over

Mama’s tears

fell like cherry blossoms all over

Where are you now

In heaven or with another human

who also adores 

fluffy cat size bed

This is my September 2019 Poetry Corner in Northwest Prime Time. I love this poem/story & the photo he gave me to accompany it!
I'd love to include other people's poems or stories in this blog.
