my friend
old cat
you thought you were another person
each day
waiting
until i arrived up the driveway
each walk
with you
meowing "slow down" if I went too fast
mornings
my prayers
you watched and knew what I was doing
faithful
with love
rubbing your nose up against my chin
i smile
and laugh
remembering our last walk together
thank you
good boy
for fifteen years of a lifetime
