Love and Courage

About Lucey, a Ragdoll Cat: Saved from Death Lucey was my feline dream! I had never seen such love from a cat's eyes ~ so heavenly stream. No, I did not find her at a shelter! She was at the Vet's scheduled for death, And in dire need of a loving helper. There she was locked in a cage waiting for the terminal needle. Her owner had passed and asked Lucey die, to be put down too, which I thought that request was horribly and morbidly feeble. With my auburn long hair, I knelt down to this queen, whispering softly,  "Mommy is here!" Her front paws reached out from the cage, grabbed my neck, oh, my she was so bubbly! I had to make my case, as a lawyer does to spare her client the death penalty! But to make this poem come to its conclusion, the Vet did set Lucey free. She was the only cat I ever had, who just loved to lie in bed with me! And purposely watch the raindrops rolling down the window together! She was the essence of heaven for me. I was able to carry her around the house in my arms. She'd wrap her paws about my grateful neck, her body so fluffy and full...total charm, so warm in my arms! God took her home quite suddenly, it rent my heart in two! All I have left is memories and an astounding photo, now in words, in this poem, too! And yes, Lucey! Wherever you are in God's celestial, eternal universe.... I am fiercely loving and eternallly grateful for every moment ~ I was so richly blessed, to share with you. Panagiota Romios 5/4/2019 11pm PST
