This is a short poem that was previously published by Morning Fruit Magazine, but as the website for the magazine is no longer available I thought I would highlight it on my blog instead. Also, make sure you look out for next week’s blog post for some exciting updates about Cats Home!
Their Little Thoughts
I think these trees are whispering
their lonely secrets to me;
dying leaves inhale my smoke
and remember what it was
to be alive, and to feel,
and they crinkle with muted joy.
If I sit here for a little while,
I might overhear the song of squirrels-
pawsteps on branches, leaping
from world to world, home to home;
not without a care, but harbouring
their little worries – their little thoughts.
