You played and walked about the floor
Your paws padding on the wood
But you weren’t allowed to pass the door
What lay beyond must have been good

I’m sure you imagined to yourself
A world so bright and gay
You decided to go out and look about
That was the fateful day

I looked and looked about the house
But you I could not find
I feared you’d been taken by a louse
Then worse things came to mind

You lived out your adventure
But the price was too high
You gave up your tenure
Now with angels you fly

You will be remembered forever by me
Life is too short
That you helped me to see


Moral of the Story:The grass isn't always greener on the other side...
