Kate

Kate, our shining star of the street,
A soul so gentle, a heart so sweet.
Every night you brought such cheer,
With love and cuddles, you drew us near.

You knew the sound of our faithful car,
Your joy and spirit, a guiding star.
We giggled at how you’d always appear,
Your trust in us was so sincere.

Streetwise, we thought, you had it all,
Yet fate was cruel in its sudden call.
A kind stranger, in your final plight,
Held you close in your fading light.

Though we couldn’t give you the home you deserved,
Your love and memory will always be preserved.
Your sister Camilla is safe and warm,
But Charles and William now weather the storm.

Kate, we’ll try to honour your grace,
By finding them love, a safe, warm place.
Your loss leaves a void we cannot mend,
But your spirit remains, a faithful friend.

Rest softly now, in peace you lie,
Our beautiful Kate, forever nearby.
In our hearts, your light still beams,
In our nights, you’ll visit our dreams.
