You’d sit in garden
The sun’s rays upon your fur,
As the plants got hydrated
You’d try and catch the water.
Your black fur was majestic
As you strutted around our place,
You were such a loyal creature
In our hearts, there is now a blank space.
Even when you’re not here
Our love will not decrease,
Thank you for all the memories
Ebony, Rest in Peace…
