Tribute to Heidi
Heidi, sweet Heidi.. I miss you so much.. I miss your head rubbing against my forehead.. I miss your loud purrings while my hand rests on your body..
I miss you jumping on the window sill when I open the window...and wanting to
rub your sweet face against mine... I miss giving you treats of roast beef and chicken fresh from the deli... I miss you coming into the bathroom in the morning..following me in there..and wanting me to stroke you.. I miss you in the mornings, when you would come and lie on my chest..purring and nudging me with your head against my chin...
I miss you darling Heidi, miss you lying on top of the recliner, while I read or watch tv.
I miss seeing you sit in that small box in the living room, facing the sun...
I miss seeing you jump from one counter to another...I miss seeing you sleeping on a chair under the table in the sunroom... I miss seeing you sleeping on the wicker table.
I miss you Heidi, lying in my arms..purring and looking at me with those beautiful eyes..I love your eyelashes..your soft silky fur..and you sweet Heidi falling asleep as I hold you..so trusting....knowing I would not drop you. I miss those long long white whiskers..longest of all the cats. I miss seeing you lying on the computer desk, while I am at the computer, lying on the plastic cover you liked so much. I miss seeing you basking in the sun, outside in the screened in porch. I miss you sitting on the arm of the recliner when I eat there, and you are patiently waiting for me to give you a taste of what I am eating...Everywhere I turn my sweet Heidi, I see you..and remember the ten years we had together...
.....Oh Heidi..I can hardly wait til the day we are together again... I love you Heidi...always in my heart and thoughts..
