Grumpy Goes To Heaven
"Grief is the price we pay for love "
Quote - Queen Elizabeth
Don't cry mommy ... I know its hard to say goodbye,
the end has come for me, we knew it would someday;
you always said I was a good cat for these twelve years,
I wanted only your nice pat, your lap and a snack !
I recall our first meeting ... I was cold and scared,
rejected by the world, shivering on your covered porch;
but you did not chase me away ... you brought me food,
at first I hissed a lot, so you named me Grumpy cat !
Eventually, we shared unconditional love each moment,
you cannot save me mommy, I suffer from old age;
the vet told you that I was of years when you found me,
and more years have passed, and they were wonderful !
Imagine me in a beautiful garden lush and green,
sunshine streams through the trees giving some shade;
bird songs fill the air and a breeze is caressing my fur,
this is my Heaven- do you know God hugged me today !
I heard your whisper, "till heaven unites us again Grumpy cat,"
and felt your kisses and your tears falling on my fur;
mommy, imagine me rolling in the cool grass to take a nap,
running and jumping, not old and sick ... like a kitten again !
Thank you mommy for saving me from a life on the street,
and giving me a wonderful life (remember my first bath);
you thought I was black but I became a tabby cat,
I loved you so much and will be waiting at rainbow bridge !
As I draw my last breath I am surround with your love.
