Bob you found your way to James
who took you in
and cared for you.
You were two souls who were lost
that needed to meet so you could
shape your future together.
You helped one another
through the storm
and found your way to the rainbow.
Your story is an inspiration
- a tonic in these troubled times,
living proof that resilience is common
across all species combined
and, when you hit your lowest note,
the only thing to do
is aim high,
because sometimes,
we need to be in the dark
before we can appreciate
the light.

This poem is for James Bowen whose bestselling book A Street Cat Named Bob tells the true story of how these two unlikely characters, made the best of their difficult circumstances, each changing the life of the other.
