DEEPLY

I am wondering deeply
On my feelings
Or why if at all
I should care but one jot

It's presence, after all, was the
randomness thing
Some days I would see it and
some others not 

It's colour and small life were not
meant for me
And maybe it's stiffness I was not
meant to see
But I did... on the ledge,
Rainwashed and bedraggled
Not a mark on its beauty
Except that of cold death

And so I reasoned inside
Tis the way of each second that
some living thing
Would be left without breath

Just the cats doing cat things
and cats are not evil
And then, who really cares there is
one robin less?
But I did and I do, it's soft eyes
accused me
And so, for one tiny robin
I am deeply bereft

Oh, it is horrid when your dearly beloved cat leaves a dead thing for you to find.

I love this line :-

Just the cats doing cat things

Awwww. You know, Iceland is called the land of ice and fire and this reminds me of cats or they remind me of Iceland. Let me explain ...land of ice and fire two very, very different things — they are at either end of whatever scale it is. Cats, they have such soft fur and bellies, and you tickle them and it feels so comforting and then BAM teeth and claws...they bloody hurt ...ice and fire, see?  x

🤣🤣🤣🤣  I always think of Iceland when I make a fuss of a cat ...lol  When I say that to "other people" they just stare at me and are like, "What????" They don't even give me the chance to explain, I quickly get the ice and fire bit in and then they are completely lost.  "Cats are like Iceland?  Eh???   Ice and fire?  WT actual F!!"   Glad you understand! 😁😁 xx

There is nothing random about these words at all .. I know exactly where you are coming from .. even us hard men have been known to shed a tear occasionally over something that many would nary even notice perhaps .. but then, maybe that's just me pointing a finger at my own species ............ I should have learnt long ago not to generalise emotion/s .................................................................... Neville x
