Morning now is different,
and waking up unwelcome.
The cats still have the same habits,
but no-one now pats the bed
to entice Levi up for a cuddle
when he mews at 5 am for food.
I don’t have to give the insulin,
take the blood sugar,
fetch the tablets ...
And there is no-one
to snuggle back down with,
to read with, to eat with. Hard
to get used to using
the one-cup coffee plunger.
