Mom I feel speaking in my heart. We never held back our thoughts from one another. We've known all along and still they have not obeyed your plea, not returned the ring. Its no big surprise to us is it mom that at your dying request to not do me harm, they still pluck what little is left. I will follow you though maybe not reach the highest realms of heaven, I remember your resting your head in my hands, smiling, and kissing away my tears. I know you hear me calling out to you in despair when I feel hurt. We had each other and so my life has known the great love of a mother. The best mother of all. The kittens are all good mama I keep us fed, still working on the house, but the lights are on and I am home and you are home. xoxo drawing a breath and a sigh because I can't draw little pictures like I always did for you and you would make me laugh. xoxo
