His stealthy figure would glide through blades of grass like the wind before him. Fluttering wings would soon follow and more often than not he would come crawling home, dejected with bruised pride. The look of disdain so often on his features was a beloved trademark. He was our sophisticated feline and companion, who purred with a sweet scowl, and kneaded laps like dough. The hungry wailing of that insistent creature was always just enough to drag us from our comfy beds, but nothing could drag him from his slumber when he curled up on the couch. His life was too short ‘though that is always the case of the creatures endeared To live in our homes and our hearts. Animals they may just be But their love is no less They simply leave smaller tracks on our hearts. [This message has been edited by SmittenKitten (edited 07-06-2001).] |

Know how it feels... and sometimes I think the tracks they leave are just as large... nicely done |
