Yellow eyes


Your eyes reflected
the evening sun
as you gazed
into its eternal light

Friendly
affectionate
always pleased
to see someone

To get to talk
to be close to
You would come
when you saw me

You would run
along the street
to the next lot
of friendly faces

You ran across
the street today
straight
across the Rainbow Bridge

I'll miss
your ready affection
your eyes
reflecting the eternal sun

Post script: The cat I saw killed in a road accident on 20 May '14 was NOT the one in the tribute. He turned up alive and well four days later...
