Telling My Secrets Too You
Alone on an old
shaky wooden dock
At the edge of the
old farm pond
Where I once was a
child until I grew
Into a young woman
that no boy knew
Though a few tried,
none got through
Well except for one,
when I was twenty two
Five years and one
daughter later,
He was gone, with
someone new
I've come back to
this old dock once again
To rethink my youth,
and talk to a friend
A big old tabby, who
I knew as a kitten
One who’s always
been there both now and then
She listens without
comment
Except for an
occasional mew
No matter if I tell
her
Something shocking
or new
Even when I tell her
of
My making love to
you
She rubs her face
against my hand
Telling me that she
understands
She does not judge
me
Because you are
another girl
She returns my love
and affection
Just as you did when
I was with you
My time has come to
leave this pond
For one last and
final time
But I won’t leave
you behind this time,
Come and live with
me old friend of mine
It’s time for you to
meet
This new friend of
mine
I know you won’t
mind
If we cuddle you all
the time
But you have to give
us our time
For our kitties like
to cuddle
And play from time
to time
Just like two
kittens with a ball of yarn
