To Have and Have for Sale For Steve 20 October 2024
Can you really have
A llama or alpaca
If they are for sale,
Not meant to stay long?
One or two or just a few
Have a forever home.
All the rest are meant
To check in and move on
Like library books
You read and return.
It takes years to "have" llamas
Or alpacas, years
For your souls to meld,
For them to fully bond you.
They will stay strangers
If they just come and go
Or if you have so many
No one knows their names,
Not even you. So
Have a few forever more.
They become partners,
Knowing, trusting, loving you,
Understanding you
And you will read them,
Know what they want to tell you
Till death do you part,
Two species, one heart,
A marriage, not a stock yard.
It will not be hard.
