Caressing our feet
Stroking his back
A shimmer of purple
Breaks up the black
Slinking on rafters
He moves with the night
Candles knocked over
Hair set alight
Eyes like emeralds
Fluffy tail so fat
He is a spook
An incredible cat
In loving memory of my dear sweet Spook who disappeared on the night I had
a bad motorcycle accident and was my companion and friend for ten years.
There's not a day goes by when I don't think of him and wonder what antics he is up to.
