Mancat Monday - for Caesar

In memory of our dear mancat friend
......................................................................
Caesar will be with us always in spirit, and we dedicate this poem to his family in hopes that it might bring them some comfort ....
Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you wake in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.

I have always loved that poem.
I think we will be very sad for a while, but we know he happy & healthy again at the Bridge.

Such a perfect choice. Mom has always loved that poem, and it such a loving sentiment for Princess and family.
