My dear sweet Pinkie,
Your final days were at home, with me
You knew how much I loved you
I am sorry for your sometimes discomfort
but I couldn’t allow them to end you at the vet
So, here you lay in your bed. I miss your jumping on my lap
your loud purrs
and you paw that often reached for my face
Rest in peace, Pinks
There are fences yet to climb and flowers to sniff
somewhere in heaven
