Vigil

In less than twelve hours, Kitty sill no longer be with us. She is now inside a box, resting in her feetless pose while her chest heaves in great discomfort.

Earlier my brother and sisterinlaw spent some time with Kitty. They talked about it and agreed that perhaps we should  get my nephew to sleep when tomorrow,'s procedure is being conducted. When he gets up, the kitty who's been there since the day he entered this world would have left the world.

just now, I made my bed on the floor next to her so I can sleep with her this one last night.

One last night I can sleep next to her and know she is there to touch, to stroke, and to love.
