Patches
For dandysmom.This came to me a few minutes ago and I felt I had to write it I hope you do not mind.
Patches
They say when some thing is worn out you patch it, how wrong they are.
For Patches to me is a wonderful word filled with love and memories of a life lived to the full.
Because Patches is me.
Patches is the name you chose to give me, and through the years I've weaved my spell,
Of magic and mystery mingled with marvellous mischief, why?
Simple, because I'm your beloved cat.
You've loved me and I've loved you as only I can.
We’ve shared many hours of complete and utter bliss while I've purred and kneaded on your lap.
To think I’ll see you no more breaks my heart but now I'm free from aches and pains I know that will ease your loss.
For always in your heart and in mine I've remained ageless forever that young and strong cat.
So when you think of me please remember to see the cat I always was to you and to me, beautiful and kind and forever you’ll be mine as I will always be yours.
And recall with a smile how I was always ready to have ham as a snack, whatever the time.
I fell asleep safe and sound in my favourite place in our home.
And forever more I will sleep in the garden I love and hold so dear.
Never more than a whisper away, listen for my purr in the wind, as I say let me go I'm fine, I have angel feathers to catch.
So I ask you, think not of me with sadness but with joy for I chose to remain with you till the end, and will stay in your heart forever and a day.
I remain as always Patches your feline friend.
