Loss

I have lost something

Very valuable to me.

Not money, not credit,

Not a trinket or even

Valuable jewelry.

Yet valuable to me.

No, not my freedom

Since Covid19 virus

Not my daughter but

As loved as she is.

I’ve a personal loss

Of my precious cat.

I knew he was sick.

I tried to prepare.

Then the day came

When I could not

Deny him comfort.

So, he died quietly,

Peacefully left me.

But I have great

Pain since his loss.

I loved him and

Will miss him dearly.

God keep him close,

protect him now.
