You were one of my dearest friends-
For you curled up beside my feet every night
While I slept,
Keeping my toes warm,
While I dreamed.
Your purring was so beautiful;
I awakened every morning,
A smile on my face for you.
As you 'meowed' your happy greeting,
And I would tenderly stroke your fur.
On the day you died,
Two years ago in October,
I buried a part of my heart,
In the earth behind our house,
Tears falling like rain into dark soil.
But when spring came,
Two beautiful bright red tulips
Graced your tiny grave,
A sweet and tender reminder that loves lives on....
And it will forevermore.
So farewell, Sweet Kyle,
My lovely, furry friend,
You are loved and deeply missed,
Remembered forevermore....
A truly precious friend.
