Alone Valentine

So I talk to some so-called dead animals
Who roam the streets of heaven now
And one cat living here on earth
 
They remain optimistic and long-suffering
And share their loneliness
With the higher gods alone
 
Having always lived in fear
Finally they can enjoy
One another’s presence there
 
While we humans carry forward
Their concept of perfection
Their sense of something missing here
 
And not to have to hunt for love
But to find it in the lap of a heaven
As below and so above
