i am very sad

my new best friends
kong kong and poh poh
are going home tomorrow...
i will be a total wreck
and so will mama, i am sure
it has been lovely
having their love and care
these past five weeks
i will miss our
reading, feeding
playing, talking and laughing
with each other
thank you for sharing
the time with us
we love you and will miss you
so much
one of the things
i loved doing each day
was sitting next to kong kong
on the bench
at the end of the garden
chatting, watching
observing and listening
to the world at large
- simply being together
my time with you
has been so special
and much appreciated
thank you and bon voyage
see you later, alligator...

(kong kong, anyone who wears mama's strange mock-crocs is cool!)
