Wishing whiskers were .....

Fluffy's long whiskers
tentatively touch my hand
trying to tell
friend from foe from food


Oh the sisters of mercy, they are not departed or gone.
They were waiting for me when I thought that I just can't go on.
And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song.
Oh I hope you run into them, you who've been travelling so long.
-- Sisters of Mercy, Leonard Cohen
