Farewell Dear Cat

Farewell Dear Cat

In life’s daily flow, a purr—soft, low,
A gentle soul I came to know.
With velvet paws and eyes so bright,
You filled my days with pure delight.
Oh, whiskered friend, full of grace,
You left your mark in this brief space.
In silent moments love found its way,
A bond that words can never say.

Now the time has come to part,
Though paw prints remain on my heart.
We shared a love, however brief,
That brought us joy and sweet relief.
Yet life, unkind, has claimed its toll,
Though you’re ever a part of my soul.
Farewell, I say, on this sad day,
May your memory ever brighten my way.

Though our journey was far too fleet,
The sound of soft purring, I’ll always keep.
With a heavy heart, I say goodbye,
With misty eyes and quiet sighs.
Though you’re gone, your spirit’s near,
In every shadow I see, in the soft sounds I hear.
Through playful pounces, gentle purrs,
My heart finds peace and warmth in yours.
