The Mattress

They say the sag
is too much
bad back
bad hips
old humans
They say
the mattress must go
put away
stored
forgotten
and my bed
my beloved bed
soft
instant comfort
will be taken away
and I will
be left
with the smell
of unfamiliar
cushion
and where will
my spot be?

We cats can soon make our own spot, if we decide to ;O)

How true. We spend so much time on our mattress that it becomes a friend and we hate to part with it.
