A Kitty's Conversation

some words from Carol -- "Dale Ann and I have been exchanging a few emails, and there were words she needed to hear. I tried to write what she needed to hear..."

"Where’s Mommy?" The wee small cat, asked the One who lifted it.

"She’ll be along." His voice replied. "We’ll only wait a bit."

"But she was holding me and crying. I felt her shoulders shake."

"I know. You see, she made a choice, the hardest she could make."

"But I went to sleep inside her arms?" the little cat replied.

His voice was soft, "I know, and that was why she cried."

"I stood beside your Mommy, when the vet was bending down.

I gave her strength to hold you, as her tears fell all around"

"Will you stay with me till Mommy comes?" the kitty asked the Man.

"I’ll be here each day to see you, until she comes to you again."

"For right beside that Rainbow Bridge, is where dogs and kitties wait,

And when you’re human’s time has come, I’ll take you both on through the gate."

"Thank you Sir", the kitty said, "That day will be so grand!"

And to herself she wondered "How he got the scars upon His hand?"

Epilogue – The Introductions

"There are many here to play with, for that’s Monster napping there,

The little one is Nala, and there’s Sneaky, neath that chair."

"Then that’s Sushi there with Popcorn, they’re playing with the ball.

And Digby's joined his family. I know and love you all"
