Ruth Van Alstine Poet Rhyme

As Kitty Passes On

You sit and stare
upon your dish,
no strength to bear
even as I wish.

For you to live
forever strong
were mine to give
your life prolong.

But being neither 
here nor there
Death comes hither
So be prepared.

Quoth Theraven August 2, 2019 at 9:40 AM Ruth, I like this poem for the usual reasons. I lost my dear Noel earlier this year. She was very special to me. -Richard
