Title: A poem for Winston
Post by: Elaine on December 12, 2006, 22:45:42 PM
Winston

 

Winston was my handsome chap

He loved nothing more than my plump, cozy lap

He graced my life for many a year

8 months since your passing, I still shed a tear

 

So gentle and kind, loving and wise

You were my most treasured prize

We shared many good times both you and I

I’ll treasure those memories till the day I die

 

Remember when you tore your blind brothers ear?

As he yowled, you hid behind the chair in fear

I cuddled you both until friendship again reigned

You were such good boys, what would scolding have gained?

 

Remember when Woody projectile poo’d in my face?

You left the room quietly, with dignity and grace

I bet you were laughing so hard from inside

But poo on my face, I cannot abide

 

Then along came little Eva, so bold and so pretty

But you my old friend were too tired for this kitty

As always you were tolerant, gentle but firm

And how she looked up to you and loved you in return

 

And so Bernie came next, with which you were fine

But the Diva it seemed was gonna take her time

They are fine together now, you’ll be pleased to hear

I’ll always miss you my boy but I know you are here

That's lovely Elaine. It's made me both laugh and cry at once.  Must be so hard for you without your baby boy *hugs*
