LISBETH’S EASY, CLOSED-EYED SELFIE

Sunday Selfies: Week #327

Note: Link is now open and working!

A few weeks ago, I shared a selfie of myself in my sphere, as it makes a great frame for a photo. In the previous photo, I was bright eyed and looking right into the camera lens. This time, I decided to do it closed-eyed. Don’t I look like I am having a nice easy Sunday?

Mom added this bright red frame, as red goes nicely with my tuxie furs. I sure hope all of you and my boyfriend Charles like it.

Hopping Time

Did you take a selfie this week? I sure hope so, as all of us Kitties Blue cannot wait to see all your smiley faces. And I know your other friends will be here looking for you as well. You don’t even have to post today to join the hop. I’ll be here in my sphere until Thursday waiting for you. The link to join us is at the bottom of the post.

 

Petlibro Giveaway

Mom asked me to let you know that today’s the last day you can enter our giveaway for a Petlibro fountain. We shared our review of the Petlibro Automatic Pet Water Fountain on Tuesday. If you missed the post, click here. Petlibro gave us a fountain to give away. To be entered in a random drawing to win it, leave a comment on the Tuesday post. Entries close today at 5 p.m. ET. We will announce the winner on our Monday Sparks post.

Have an happy and easy Sunday.

Purrs & paw-pats, Lisbeth

    Lisbeth it looks like you and Rumpy Bump had the same idea. I just checked my past emails and saw the lin. If you just go to the blog (how we do) you still cant see it. Odd! Glad you are all alright

YOU
For Fiona

It seems like only yesterday…
You were just a kitten.
When I saw your pleading look,
I was completely smitten.

Now at only six years old,
You are getting ready to leave,
Soon you will have your wings.
I’ve already started to grieve.

You’ve fought hard for the past year,
And I’m not ready to say good-bye.
I can’t imagine you not in my life
I am so sad…today I had to cry.

I am grateful and blessed
For my six years with you.
You’ll live in my heart forever.
You’re one of the best ever Kitties Blue.

YESTERDAY

Many yesterdays have passed since
You gained your angel wings. Today
Is six months since you left us behind
To remember and mourn. Our hearts
Continue to hurt, and we miss
You as much as the day you left.
Giulietta whined from the catio
Yesterday as I worked in the yard.
I know you put her up to it. That
Was your way of getting me to,
Allow you to join me as I
Gardened. You were there with me
In spirit. With every meow
I thought of you and how much I miss
Your sweet face and disposition.
In these past few months, many friends
Have traveled your same path in your
paw-steps. I am certain you were
Waiting to greet them with purrs and hugs.
I pray you and your friends are laughing,
Frolicking and having fun together.
Picturing that makes me smile, but
Does not lessen my sadness at your
No longer being here to snuggle
And receive our love, care and kisses.
Fiona, please do not ever forget
You are still and always will be loved.

ONE YEAR MISSING YOU

One year has passed since you flew away,
And I still think of you everyday.
I see your sweet face in my mind’s eye
And wish we’d never had to say good-bye.
It’s nice you’ve sent us kitties needing a family,
But my dearest love, we are now at capacity.
You thought it would take more than one cat
To take your place in our habitat.
We love Cooper Murphy and baby Sawyer dearly
But thinking either could replace you makes me teary.
You were one-of-a-kind and will stay in my heart
Until the day I join you and we’re no longer apart.
When once again I can hold you in my arms
And revel in all your love and feline charms.
Together with you and all who have passed.
I will spend eternity contemplating how blessed
I was to share my life with my furry children,
Each and every one of you one-in-a billion.

UNTIL

I miss you each day.
Until we meet in heaven,
The pain will remain.

© Giulietta Blue 11/01/17

ONE OF A KIND

I don’t know how to say good-bye.
I thought you were invincible; though,
You used up many of your nine lives.
You ruled us all with an iron paw;
Never took “no” for an answer
And always got your way.
If not, you’d bark to signal your
Displeasure and sometimes raise a paw.
I always joked that you were bi-polar.
When I told people you were a calico
They immediately understood what I meant.
Today was unnaturally quiet in the house.
Can a home seem empty with eight cats?
I will miss waking up at night to find you
Sitting next to me and staring at me.
I will miss you yelling at us as you did
When you wanted breakfast and dinner.
I will miss watching you lounging and snoozing
On the porch settee on a warm afternoon.
But most of all I will miss your kisses!
When kitten Sawyer befriended you,
We suspect you were imparting your
Wisdom and secrets for controlling us.
Time will tell if he was a good listener.
But whatever he may have learned,
Neither Sawyer nor any other cat
Can or will replace you in our hearts.
Lily Olivia, you were one-of-a-kind.
