Ruby by Keturah / Your Mother/Friend Keturah
My pet mouse Ruby is a one of a kind mouse. She was there for me in times I needed her. She was there when my parents broke up and when my sister got married. She was there with me for a very long time. I got her when she was about 6 mounths old and
I had her for 2 years before she died.
When my parents broke up she was the only one I could talk to late at night when she was just getting up. I would take her out of her cage and hold her and it was almost like she was just sitting there listening to what I had to say. She was my best friend for a long time and when she died I cried for days and days I couldn’t stop thinking about “who am I gonna talk to now?” I still don’t have another mouse but if I do get one it will never be the same as my Dear Sweet RUBY

You waked me up in the middle of the night
just so I could hold you tight
now I lye here in my bed
thinking of you in my head
you were growing old
I knew I couldn’t hold
you were falling away
as you lay
in my arms
and your charms
were left behind
they will always be in my mind
