I remember when you
First came to me
A cute little kitten
Who loved climbing trees 


I remember watching
You as you licked up
Your morning milk
Your eyes twinkling
Your hair so silk 


I remember holding you
On my lap
You purred so soflty
While taking your 
Your afternoon nap 


I remember thinking
How this pretty little cat
Had crept into my heart
And left a imprint
That will never part 


I remember watching 
You grow through the years
You was my best friend
Seeing me go through 
So many fears 


I remember as the
Last few months went by
The twinkle had
Left your beautiful eyes 


I remember watching you
Walk ever so slow
I think you knew
It was your time to go 


I remember holding you
In my arms
And how hard i cried
Praying to God 
That you wouldn't die 


Then i realized your
Time on earth was through
So i quitely,but sadly
Let go of you
