Untitled feelings the oscillations of perfectly woven moments

My sister's birthday
50 is a  
Big day  
Milestone  
I message with  
Tact  
Spice with humor  
As I am texting my  
Recent  
Write about  
Living and  
Dying  
Her beloved cat  
Of many years  
Finally passes on  
   
She's a  
Wreck  
I comfort  
As best  
I can  
   
Reading  
Googling  
Wash my best  
Duds  
Preparing  
   
A final breath of  
Winter  
Descends  
The night air is  
Fresh  
Cool  
So inviting  
As is the  
Bright  
Blue  
White  
Face of the  
Moon  
   
Tilt my chin  
Drink her  
In  
   
Pay my respects  
Time passes  
One wash  
Finishes  
Begin another  
Time is money  
Pay my  
Dues  
   
A friend who recently  
Lost  
A beloved cat  
Has a day at work  
We share  
She feels  
Surreal  
Something is about to happen  
   
She returns home and finds  
A new little  
Feline  
Blessing  
I feel  
The glow of her  
New found  
Joy  
I smile  
   
Turn my head from side to  
Side  
Cannot help but say  
Livings and  
Dyings
 
   
A friend who  
Fled  
An abusive  
Home  
Living now  
In a car  
Having begun a new  
Job  
Saving up  
 
Everyday on her  
Break  
I tell her,  
Good girl  
Stay focused  
I'm proud of you
 
   
Now  
One more  
Paycheck  
New place  
Lined up  
   
Moving through these  
Transitional phases can be  
Difficult  
Things get  
Shook up  
Feelings get  
Shook loose  
   
Time slides  
In the saddle of  
Tides which  
Sway like  
Hips  
Sultry  
Motions  
So  
Seductive  
We focus in  
And forget  
Everything  
Else  
   
Everything  
But the blue white  
Face  
Of the moon  
   
I tilt back my  
Chin  
Eyes  
Drink her  
In
