she is lying there so still and at ease
the magic needle has brought her release
and that face that had been so full of pain
is now so relaxed and beautiful again
there's an empty place here in our house
for she's gone to the land of ethereal mouse
where all cats frolic and hunt and play
in that perfect world each perfect day
I shed my tears in her beautiful fur
then kissed her head and left her there
but memory is good and memory is kind
and she still frolics away hidden in my mind
like all my cats she was one of the best
and she still lives there along with the rest
