No, not at all, RCR - I hope that she appreciates it as much as I do. What a terrible shame losing two cats so close together. Was she Roger's owner?

I will

This is the changed poem:

You went too quickly
No time to say goodbye
The sickness took hold
There was nothing more that could be done

You’re in the better place
Where there is no pain
Where you can play together like kittens
I will never forget you
You are both still very special to me

I still miss you
They say time is a healer
But nothing can replace you
I just wish things could have gone differently
Wish I could have said a proper goodbye

You were both unwell though,
It wasn’t fair to keep you going
When you were in pain

I’ll meet you again though
On the other side
And we will be together again
Forever

Re: Angieh


I know Roger's story - I haven't read Barrie's yet.

OK just read it - it is entirely up to you because it is your poem RCR, but I imagine that Barrie's owner did have time to say goodbye to him. Having that written in a poem just might be too sad, don't you think?
