Today I woke up in grief. I miss my cat badly. It is funny how no matter how much you realize that nothing lasts forever, you still have some things that you feel are undone. I wish I would have petted a bald spot on you, I’d have a patch of your fur. Squeezed you til you scratched me, at least I’d have a reminder. Carried you around til you forgot what the ground felt like, at least I would feel you warm against me. My poor kitty. I saw my boot on the floor and thought it was you. Full well knowing, it could not be. Ah, it made me miss you, the tightness grew in my throat, I could not help the burning of my eyes. I miss you Bodie.

 

Love you my friend,
Rob
