Mischievous Glint
February 26, 2015
Once he was lively and spirited
Jumping and chasing imaginary mice
Now he walks with a shake in his legs
Sleeping and dreaming of running
Please don't go...
His coat gleamed of soft browns and creamy whites
Reflecting the sun's golden rays
Now his fur has been dulled by gray
Clumped and missing patches
Stay...
After fighting for as long as he could
The old cat finally took his last breath
I let him go...
Yet even when the years started to take its toll on him
Never once did he lose the mischievous glint in his eyes
I miss him...
