I love you like my bed at the end of a tiring day
You have been
a source of joy, entertainment and comfort
I've been amazed, by your energy
your athleticism, beauty
four quick little paws
lithe, capable of impossible leaps
A purr that could catch me
at my worst moments and warm me,
sustain me
Go gently, my little friend
into that good night
I cannot bear for you to suffer
