Dear Sarafina,
I’ve suffered loss before, but not like this.
Five years and my heart is still broken. Five
years and your picture is still on my phone.
Five years and the heat of my tears still
wend their way down my cheeks whenever
I think of you.
.
Who would have thought a cat could bring
such sorrow. Who could have thought a cat
would not?
.
In the end a friend forever. In the end
I will always remember.
Love,
Joe

A Few Moments More
You’ll give it one more minute, and then you’re headed back inside. It’s pretty chilly out, after all. Not that that’s a real issue - you’ve stood out here for longer, and in colder weather. The snow is nearly gone already; tiny, dirt-stained islands of the stuff form a shrinking archipelago dotting the sea of green that is your backyard. Striations of sunlight dance through the trees at the edge of the woods and paint the scene in a camouflage of brown, green, and gold.
