Constance La France Poet Verse

Dark Days of Reverie

Written by Broken Wings

I am thinking today of my sweet cat,
She is buried in the shade of a tree;
My sadness is so deep and dark Lord,
Why give this love and take it away?
    I have put to rest so many,
    Pets full of unconditional love;
    My heart is shattered each time,
          Each time, I have to bury love.

My grievance demonstrates my love,
Shedding another tear for my cat;
Oh sadness I miss her tender touch,
I wish my precious pets were here.
    Sorrow lays beneath a tree,
    I stare in wonder to heaven;
    Are my pets looking down at me?
          With heartache, I say goodbye.

Robert Lindley September 4, 2015 at 11:13 PM So beautiful in its sadness and inspiring message of future hope after death. I have never replaced my dog, Midnight, after he passed on back in 1983... Great poem on the depth of losing a beloved pet!!!
