Friendship 😺
#WritcoPoemPrompt25

He toils through the day,
never finding satisfaction.
I wait on him like a servant
fearing his repercussions.
Without a word he'll leave me.
But within minutes he'll return to check on me.

He earns his daily meal with
a wink or a meow. Just the
approving nod of his head
will have me pour out all my love.

Not a tear will be shed because
he and I have an eighteen year bond
that has outlasted everyone who ever claimed to care for us. But we adopted each other forever. We cared enough to stay together. While no one else ever cared for either of us.

We have a true bond built on love and friendship that has endured the years. Never turn on your true friends.
