To my beautiful cat Darcey, who disappeared 5 weeks ago.
I fancy that I'll see you Strolling down my drive one day Winding yourself round my legs Like you'd never been away And then I'd probably pick you up Wouldn't want to set you free It'd be sardines and tuna for weeks and weeks And your favourite - milky tea I'd probably want to stare at you And stroke you so I could feel That my beautiful Darcey had come home It wouldn't seem quite real You were only 7-weeks-old When I took you home with me What a beautiful and gorgeous lady You soon turned out to be I felt that you'd be with me Till you were old and grey But only 2 years later You had gone astray The high hopes I'd had that you'd come home Have begun to fall For I've knocked on every door And responded to every call I've searched and called in pouring rain Put up flyers and posters of you I've rang round every vet and checked With every shelter too I've stopped passing strangers to ask 'Have you seen a tabby cat?'’ I've exhausted every idea I've had My batteries have run flat I don't ever want to say That I've given up, lost faith Cause you'll always be welcomed home That'll always be the case I miss you so much That as I write this I could cry But it seems that for me and you This is a sad goodbye But I still fancy that I'll see you Strolling down my drive one day My precious little Darcey I do hope you're okay. Maybe one day that will happen And I'll make that milky tea Can you hear me, lovely Darcey Please come home to me -------------------- My Beloved Bono: This Void is Immeasurable

Your poem made me cry. You went to great lengths looking for your baby. I hope she will be sitting at your door one day when you least expect it. Keep checking the lost and found in the news paper anyways.. Thoughts and prayers are with you and Darcey.
