Willow (II)

No sooner had I buried Willow, when this lily, 12 inches from where she lies, bursts into flower. In January. The cat is behind and below the plant.

If I had any sense of the spiritual, I might read something into that.

I could suggest a couple of sciencey theories but I think maybe it's nicer to think willow is making it flower. Hope she's happy now, with full bladder control and resting in peace. xx

You'll just have to call your next cat 'Lily'.
Let's hope it's a girl cat.

It's an Arum lily.
A flower commonly, in Western cultures, associated with death.

Sleep well, Willow.
