SILENT LONGING
Our days are filled with longing for the
two of you.
Our nights are haunted with dreams of where you
may have gone to.
I long to once again run my hand through your
silky fur,
And watch you snuggle on your back as you begin
to purr.
I long to watch you flick your proud tails as
you fight
Together in the living room at night.
I long to just look at your wild beauty as you
Prowl across the carpet and leap onto the window
sill.
I wish that once again you would sharpen your
claws on the chair by the door,
Or knock my treasures from the cabinet onto the
floor,
Or damage the plants in your reckless play.
I wish, oh I wish you had never gone away.
I long to touch the little black spot on Jasper's
face and
stroke Merlin's lynx ears,
But I know I never will.
Goodbye my little wizard.
Goodbye Baby Bear.
My memories of you now have this place.
They will be safe there.
