but it was worse
than the cat!
the young boy,
now a college student,
came home one night
and found you whining
uncontrollably.
mommy and daddy
tried to pet you
but nothing would work!
they took you to
the doctor
to see what was wrong,
but they found no pain.
no stroke,
no damage,
no nothing!
they thought you were fine!
but the whining didn’t stop,
and you couldn’t even walk.
it was so bad,
a light breeze
could knock you over.
you had to be carried,
it was the only way
to stop the whining.
and every time
someone held you
in their arms,
you would cuddle closer,
not wanting
to leave their embrace.
it broke everyone’s heart
seeing you like this,
daddy couldn’t help
but cry,
and the young boy,
while he didn’t show it,
wasn’t taking it easy.
