    I thank you God for most this amazing
    day: for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
    and a blue true dream of sky; and for everything
    which is natural which is infinite which is yes

    jeannelong: Emily Dickinson - I was a Phoebe — nothing more —   I was a Phoebe -- nothing more -- A Phoebe -- nothing less -- The little note that others dropt I fitted into place --   I dwelt too low that any seek -- Too shy, that any blame -- A Phoebe makes a little print Upon the Floors of Fame --

    Emily Dickinson - I was a Phoebe — nothing more —

     

    I was a Phoebe -- nothing more --
    A Phoebe -- nothing less --
    The little note that others dropt
    I fitted into place --
     
    I dwelt too low that any seek --
    Too shy, that any blame --
    A Phoebe makes a little print
    Upon the Floors of Fame --

    Sometimes I need
    only to stand
    wherever I am
    to be blessed.

    I’m getting on in years,
    My coat is turning gray.
    My eyes have lost their luster,
    My hearing’s just okay.
    I spend my day dreaming
    Of conquests in my past,
    Lying near a sunny window
    Waiting for its warm repast.

    I remember our first visit,
    I was coming to you free,
    Hoping you would take me in
    And keep me company.
    I wasn’t young or handsome,
    Two years I’d roamed the street.
    There were scars upon my face,
    I hobbled on my feet.

    I could sense your disappointment
    As I left my prison cage.
    Oh, I hoped you would accept me
    And look beyond my age.
    You took me out of pity,
    I accepted without shame.
    Then you grew to love me,
    And I admit the same.

    I have shared with you your laughter,
    You have wet my fur with tears.
    We’ve come to know each other
    Throughout these many years.
    Just one more hug this morning
    Before you drive away,
    And know I’ll think about you
    Throughout your busy day.

    The time we’ve left together
    Is a treasured time at that.
    My heart is yours forever.
    I Promise - This old cat.
