Patches my Love June 3rd 1979-March 8th 1989

Patches, My Love

6/3/79 - 3/8/89

Angel Girl, itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s been so long since you have gone away.

I wish that we could meet again, if only for one day.

I see you still, a tiny kit, a baby cat just borne.

You claimed my heart with your first breath

And to this day I mourn.

My kit of many colors,

my darling little friend;

You chose me above all others

So loyal to the end.



Your eyes of gold shone pure with love;

I knew that I was blessed.

A precious gift sent from up above;

So different from the rest.

At night you lay so close to me; so safe within my arms.

I wanted more than anything to keep you safe from harm.

We played, and laughed and purred and loved until that rainy day.

Then all the love that we two shared could not help you to stay.

I think sometimes, in darkest night, that I still hear your purr.

I reach across, where you should be, in sleep to touch your fur.

I know that we will meet again; but now just run and play.

Be happy, dearest little love…Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ll hold you some fine day.

That is a beautiful poem. Also, beautiful how you still love your Patches after so long. So sweet.

Thanks,
She was one of my favs.

That is a beautiful poem, which brought tears to my eyes because it reminds me of how I loved my Snoopy Gundy who just had his 2 year anniversay at The Bridge.

Patches...forever in your heart.

Thanks All,
Sorry for making you all Sad.

Aww so sweet! Love the poem
