Heartbreak

The turnip wanted to know what heartbreak was. For a quick example, I took him into the garden, to the place where my three cats are buried. I said, "On this spot, Molly, Jazzy and Jaffa chased butterflies, and stretched out in the sun, and pounced on leaves and ran to greet me. And now they are nothing but a collection of minerals, and I miss them." He said that was pretty bad, and asked if heartbreak got any worse. I had to laugh. He is so naive, even for a turnip.
