Poem For Cats
And God asked the feline spirit
Are you ready to come home?
Oh, yes, quite so, replied the precious soul
And, as a cat, you know I am most able
To decide anything for myself.
Are you coming then? asked God.
Soon, replied the whiskered angel
But I must come slowly
For my human friends are troubled
For you see, they need me, quite certainly.
But don't they understand? asked God
That you'll never leave them?
That your souls are intertwined. For all eternity?
That nothing is created or destroyed?
It just is....forever and ever and ever.
Eventually they will understand,
Replied the glorious cat
For I will whisper into their hearts
That I am always with them
I just am....forever and ever and ever.

That I am always with them
I just am....forever and ever and ever.

The love he gave to you was reflected in your tender care...Wendell was loved and loved in return.
As I read this, my Sadie was draped over my right shoulder, happy as can be...
Your Wendell was a beautiful cat...and what a lovely poem! A wonderful tribute to a wonderful companion.
It's a beautiful poem. These friends of ours are missed, but they are never forgotten. May your mind and heart be filled with all those good memories of your life with Wendell.
I like your poem.
I can truly understand your emotional pains. However, please believe that Wendell is smiling at you and should protect you for ever.
