come springtime
Wed Apr 10 2002

throw open winter's door,
thaw out the muddy icicles hanging off my heart,
help that little soul off to the clouds, peek through the mini blinds,
peck me on the cheek...
i need that burst of happy, i need to breathe it in,
i'll hold it's silly little tail, i'll be the pink pinwheel...
unhook the weight of grey days from every single joint,
pin up the light and bouncy, secure it with sweet joy...
melt the fear and sorrow, off the fragile brows,
place at each corner of the room a vase with lovely flowers.

    Crap. The odds were against that poor kitten from the start, but I had hopes ....

    There's probably a spay/neuter clinic sponsored by the SPCA near you. Affordable, sensible, and the only humane answer to this.

    That's why I've promised myself, no more pets, until I can afford to get them proper medical care. That's why I need you here in SA. ;)

    You keep telling them franny!

    There are still people who believe that to get a female fixed before she has a litter is unhealthy for the females state of mind.
    Bullsh.................it!
    Same goes for males.

    The Daff may have told you that the weather here is getting lovely again. The imagery in your last entry stuck in my mind all day yesterday. I could just see this hemisphere taking it's coat off. ;)

    The words are big and happy enough to be able to stand next to height="1000" length="1000" IMG parameters.
