Ghost Cat

I said good bye to you today, little cat
fingers caught on bones as i stroked your fur
You could scarcely raise your head
yet you calmed me with your purr

were you comfortable in my arms ?
did you know you had a lil time now ?

your wide eyes held gentle love
quiet pain but you showed no fear

you slipped away so quietly
we weren't sure that you were gone

Our bouncy little cat was stilled
but your spirit lingers on

Little ghost cat ..where are you now ?
Are you happy ..Are you strong ?

I feel your warmth , your life , your love ..
Still can hear your purring song .. !
