Shadows – Felicity Lynch

Felicity Lynch
Katoomba, NSW
Why is it that
The most beloved
Die before time
Haunted by loss
Fragmented like dandelions
Blown hither and thither
By unseen winds
Touch
Acceptance
Belonging
Comfort of a hug
A big smile
The feeling of being part
Of a family
Lost
The little cat died today
Companion for 15 years
Little black bundle of love
With golden eyes
Soft black fur
A swinging tail
Expressing her many feelings
Her chirrups, her happiness
A lost but found little waif
Belonging to no one
Now so loved
So important
So part of our family
So missed

Beautiful poem, Felicity.
Love your poem, Felicity, as I love all your writings. But where, in 2020, are you now Felicity? I can’t find you anywhere.
Lots of love … Pat (UK)
