Chrissie 17 years ago you chose me. You climbed up on my shoulder licked my ear curled up and started to purr. My heart was filled with love the instant we were together. You have been my companion my friend for so many years. When your companion Smokey died 5 years ago you comforted us in your unique way. When my Mom died a week later you were there when I got home giving me kisses nuzzling my face comforting me in my great loss. Early this morning you were in your favorite place–lying on my chest while I was in bed.
We both knew your time had come. You looked into my eyes one last time. For a few more precious moments you snuggled into my chest. Then a few sighs and you were gone. I saw you in my dreams after I fell asleep. Or was it a vision a gift to comfort me? Smokey was there to greet you –you both scampered off then curled up next to each other like you used to. Paws around each others necks washing each others faces.
Both of you young and happy and vital again. Someday I’ll hold you in my arms again. I’ll be in my favorite chair. You’ll curl up on my chest (after giving me your trademark kiss on my nose!) Smokey will be on the arm rest. . .Smokey–you are still missed. Amy your special person is quite the young woman now. I know she still thinks of you.
