I sincerely see how the love and the care of one
Can bring such joy and happiness to another
You lived in a home with no care and no love
Until I adopted you and became your new mother
I see how meaningful and special a life can be
And how you found true love and trust in me
You were always so loving, not a claw did you bear
My faithful little shadow, you followed me everywhere
Waiting by my front door for my return every day
You showed me your appreciation in every little way
Your unique personality and your pretty little face
It is never possible for another to ever take your place
Not having you by my side any more hurts me like hell
I miss your meow, your love and your “pussy cat” smell
But it is inevitable that every living thing must die
You became old, frail and lost the glisten in your eye
Trying hard to tend to you, my sadness I did not show
But you had reached the end and you needed to go
So I released your suffering soul from this Earth & your pain
Then an Angel took you to heaven where God will reunite us again
Love forever
Your Guardian Angel on Earth, Sheree (mom)
In Loving Memory of Suzie
