For My Friend, Leona

 

Kitty,

To see you in death, so delicate, so small

to want to gather you up,

and rock you.

Sing you a soft little song.

 

Kitty, I love you

I didn’t want you to go,

but you’re in a far better place now

this much I know.

 

Now I don’t know if you believed in a God

or if you even cared,

up until you were gone.

 

But I know that you’re somewhere, curled up on a cloud,

snoring softly, gently, yet purring rather loud.

 

Perhaps you look now in peace

as you did in death,

Peaceful, restful,

My childhood pet

My kitty, my baby

My comfort, my friend.

 

Kitty,

Wait for me please,

I’ll find you someday

and I swear to you kitty

That I will never forget

 

My childhood friend

My childhood pet.

 

Your beloved pet is sick
