Beautiful Friend

 

Beautiful Cat, who shared my life

Beautiful Cat, who mellowed my strife

 

Beautiful Eyes, in the dark glowed so bright

Beautiful Eyes, shone like gems in the light

 

Beautiful Fur, soft and silky smooth

Beautiful Fur, just one touch would soothe

 

Beautiful Tail, held high with regal pride

Beautiful Tail, that expressed thoughts inside

 

Beautiful Face, full of smarts and intuition

Beautiful Face, full of love without condition

 

Beautiful Body, so agile and strong

Beautiful Body, whose life is sadly gone

 

Beautiful Soul, a perfect little being

Beautiful Soul, broke my heart as life was fleeing

 

Beautiful Friend, always by my side

Beautiful Friend, my pain can’t be denied

 

Beautiful Cat, why did you go

Beautiful Cat, I miss you so

 

My beloved feline friend:  Always loved,  never forgotten
