Little Baby Grey

Dear little kitten
Loved by Furmom and Furdad,
I loved you too.

You were their firstborn,
You were the child of their hearts,
And of mine too.

Now I remember
How they brought you home to me,
Sweet little one.

Now I remember
You were so shy and quiet,
Beautiful one.

You lived happily
Here for so many years,
Dear Baby Grey.

I’ll never forget
Your quiet, peaceful gaze,
My Baby Grey.

In my memory
I will hold you dear ‘til the
End of my days.
