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.

Great collage! I had to search this one out after seeing “Spring II.”
A post that left me wordless … in wonder and enchantment. Thank you! V.

Beautiful flowers! I can’t wait until it stops snowing here so we can have some, too 🙂

Hi. I’m linking up with my Wordless Wednesday Bloggers. I went to visit and realized your link was missing a dot between the www and the rest of your URL. I’ve updated that for you!

just beautiful! It’s finally beginning to warm up here in Michigan
This is so beautiful! Your garden is so nice!

I just love all the spring blooms. And I really like the borders around your gallery—neat!
I used a free web-site: pizap.com. Another blogger had mentioned it many weeks back, and I have just started working with it. Lots of things you can do. I am working on trying to redo my “Felines” page with it. I haven’t been as successful so far as I was with these photos. All in good time, I guess. Janet
Oh how lovely spring is!
How pretty and how wonderful!
Beautiful! I just noticed the buds are sprouting on our trees!
now is that kitty watching that birdie???? We have already had lots blooming, but that’s part of living in the bay area…we are lucky that we don’t have extreme weather at all.
Great picture! The leaves on the trees are just beginning to come out up here.
