A life without

How can I live a life without

my dear pets who love me, no doubt

with their cute meows and their playful barks

as we stroll throughout the park.

But what if they leave just like that?

all the dogs and all the cats.

who will be here to keep me warm?

or lay next to me during a storm...

My heart would break...

my bones would ache...

The good news though, is they will always have a place,

to lick my face
