Last night the chair moved. John’s chair.

The latest in a series of unusual events.

What fun to give to these circumstances

other-worldly causes, my desire to reunite

with those passed on, and missed.

Even the cats work with the presence

of…my overactive imagination? They stare

at empty spaces. Run toward unheard calls.

Purr at unseen figures in the room.

Last night John’s chair moved.

Please don’t try to explain it.

They are never far away from me, those gone,

I prefer it that way, let me take comfort

from strange occurrences and the purr

of two cats.
