With thanks to Derek Wallcott " Love after Love"

"The time will come

when, with elation

you will greet yourself arriving..." 

She named you after a poet, 

a fluffy little fur ball, black, white and brown, today

you companion me.

Invite smiles in the mirror, 

through rain, sunshine, clouds, rainbows, 

reflecting the stranger, recognized. 

Hand on leash, on heart, 

tears of recognition. 

"Sit. Feast on your life"
