Sapphire

I didn't want to say goodbye
Your time had come too soon.
I love you with all of my heart and soul
I didn't want to let you go.
Your precious ways will always be
A great big part of me.
Your beautiful spirit lives within me.
Thank you for being in my life, my love.
You gave so much of you.
I am so blessed to have known you.
My hand under the glass
You so loved to swat.
The dryer you pleaded to get in and if you couldn't you would pout.
Cuddling under the blanket with me
Felt so comforting to me.
Your warmth, softness and beauty
Will always be a part of me.
Jumping on the side of the tub to get in you would try to con,
It wasn't until after you passed I learned your ancestory, a Turkish Van.
They love to swim, romp and play,
That always made my day.
I am honored to have known you
A being with so much life and love.
Thank you my precious one
For being a wonderful son.
