About This Poem

Loving You

What would I do
if not for you?
I'll share what most likely would be true.
I'd be sitting all alone
in my very empty home
feeling depressed and blue,
but then suddenly upon my lap
leaps my adorable little cat
demanding attention and affection,
and as I softly stroke your back
with you lovingly gazing back
my thoughts go in a completely different direction.
Slowly but surely I come out of my depression,
because loving you has no room for unpleasant distractions.

    That feel of an animal breathing, purring in one's lap is serenity defined.

    Thank you for sharing that. Animals give us so much. My dog was put down about 6 months ago. She was suffering but I still miss her. No matter how bad my day was, comming home to her always made me fell better.
