Lost Life
May 29, 2019
Laying and lounging
In the cold crisp air,
Was Cleo the cat
With her soft silky hair
Smooth as hot chocolate
With whip cream on top,
Cleo went off
With a leap and a hop
She ventured off,
Through the forest alone
While not turning back
Even for home
Out in the wilderness
In the fluffy white snow,
Cleo the cat,
Oh where did you go?
We will mourn and remember
For as long as we roam
Cleo the cat
Will you ever come home?
Cleo the cat
In our hearts you will stay
Up in cat heaven
Far, far away

This poem is about my cat Cleo. Cleo went missing last winter in the end of November 2018. She was such a sweet and pretty kitty, and we miss her greatly. So I wrote this poem as a tribute to Cleo after she disappeared. I hope people will realize that even if you lose something/someone, you can always remember them in your heart, and they are not gone forever.
