Spot-Cat in Motion

Spot-Cat in motion

across an ocean of love

carried in hearts plenty

near and far

an old friend tender

warm to the touch even now

in the smiling hearts he loved

and still touching them alive

fueling a brighter moment of joy

How he wove his antics thick

kissing away tears before they could come

until some may come now

as our old friend

family to those that don't know him

but love him all the same

comes not to find his rest in peace

but comes to find his spot in our hearts

Now he walks on water

and slide through air with grace

truer in form than ever

as we see him more alive

than ever we knew

flowing from Belgium to California

No doubt Alaska too

Down under even is not too far a reach

For this Spot-Cat

making his place be known

by the glorious company he keeps

and keeps and keeps

even now, NOW, in this present

the only place he's ever been

where still he is as far as I can see

purring in my heart at this moment now

as never before he has been
