TRIBUTE TO SAMMY 1993-1999

CANCER HAS ITS WAY

A killer is loose! And, 
It’s not easy to take away your life. 
This decision is left to me. 
Who am I to decide that it’s time, for you to die? 
Just a needle, they say 
And your life is over, without pain. 

But I am a selfish person 
I want to keep you with me, always. 
Then too, would I be showing you love 
by watching and letting you suffer? 

It hurts to see your food intake, decline. 
This cancer has finally gotten a hold of you 
It wears you down each day. 
And there is only one thing left to do. 

But there is still alertness in your eyes 
When you see me come your way. 
You gaze at me, almost begging for relief 
Then in an instant, they’re asking me something else. 

I love you so much Sammy. My little furry friend. 
Oh God, Why do you place this burden on us?

I PLAYED GOD!

How could I do this to you 
On the day, of Feb 9. 1999 
This question will always surface, 
Was this, the last life of your nine? 

I did not want to play God 
With the death of your life. 
I sensed you knew this time, was near 
Before we took that fateful drive. 

You did not make a sound 
As the needle found its mark 
In a matter of a heartbeat 
Your life was over, in the past. 

Please don’t hate me Sammy 
I told them…Take your life! 

You sleep now forever at my door, 
and greet me, before I go inside.  ~*~ I will love and miss you always Sammy and be assured,  you have a piece of my heart buried with you. ~*~  ~*~ R.I.P Baby Catz ~*~ TeAnne © Feb 9. 1999 


IN MY HEART A PERFECT PICTURE

I loved your silky fur 
And your licks upon my skin 
I needed your purring tunes 
Like breathing out, breathing in. 

On my lap I miss your kneading paws 
Where you’d make a bed of me 
Your place on my bed is empty now 
Where once you curled my knee. 

In my heart is your picture 
It’s tattooed in perfection 
Not another will take your place 
To gain this same affection. 

You have taken all my love with you 
And I so proudly let you take it 
Because you left all of yours for me 
In the chair, where you and I would sit.
