I'm Sorry, Tinky

I'm sorry, Tinky
that it was me
who let you go out
one last time.
We always let you
go out at night. .
you always came back.

I didn't know that Mommy
wasn't going to let you
go out. .she didn't tell
me until after I found
you the next morning.

If only we hadn't taught
you to meow before you went
out. .you would still be
here;
playing with your little gray
furry toy mouse on the rug.
But it is too late to fix
anything now.

Not for a second, did Mommy
and I regret keeping you.
We both loved you so much; the
house and yard are not the same
without our "little boy."

I'm sorry that I paddled you
sometimes,
I tried not to hurt you.
You didn't need them very often,
you were always a really good boy.
