Kelley



       My pumpkin shaded fur-boy.
       Such a magical, silken toy.

       Sneezing so very wretchedly.
       Oh, do remain with me in these
       cold, rainy years!

       In this lovely cottage together,
       please, don't be afraid!
       I will hold you close and comfort
       your feline fears.

       The curtains new, alive and fresh
       with love.
       The smell of jasmine seeps through
       them with God's love.

        The azure rug, soft as a peach.
        I found heaven on earth with you.
        Please, always, be in my soul's reach!


            *In memory of Kelley, who went
                    to Rainbow Bridge.*

Exactly right! He also lives in my soul! He was my earthquake cat. He was a predictor of oncoming earthquakes. PR
