Trouble

You know there are people that you love
in your life, things that you care for deep down 
inside, you want to keep forever in your time.

Can you feel the pain deep inside when
they're gone and you realize a little part 
of you has died.

Time goes on but in your heart you know, 
that things have changed forever in your life.


For My friend Polly Hollenback
 in memory of her wonderful cat 
named Trouble she had her for 17 years,
 passed away this last year, we both loved 
her and We were very sad
 to see her go.~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Our next-door neighbors lost their old cat recently. We used to look after him (Thomas) when they went on holiday, and they would look after our two cats if we were away. They still insit that they will look after our cats anytime. Pets become a part of the family and it is always sad to see them go. A nice tribute. Robert.

I lost a pretty little white cat called Lily that I loved very much. When you lose a pet it's like losing a child. My condolences to you both. God Bless, JB
