Farewell familiar Earth, I am no longer prone To Earthly gravity which weighs down frail flesh and bone; My soul is lighter than the feather which on the scales of justice lies, And now I dance on sunbeams beyond Earth's cloud-studded azure skies. A far more sad farewell I bid to those who loved me well, For while I dance light-pawed in paradise, my absence brings them hell, Do not prolong your sadness, for I know that ere too long we'll meet again, And you can rest assured that I'm gone far beyond all suffering or pain. Do not feel guilty, or think that I have felt betrayed, Because you had to lend a helping had to ease me towards my grave, And do not feel that you betray me when you take a new cat to your heart, You will need mortal feline company to fill the time while we remain apart. Farewell familiar Earth, I am no longer prone, To the pain of age, and cancers which in my flesh had grown, Now I dance on sunbeams beyond those broad cerulean skies, And betimes I will gaze down upon you, with gentle, loving, emerald eyes. • • • #Dolly #CatAngel #OfficeCat #RIP #SLSmith
