With much grief they came, 
gathering with muffled cries 
to wish their loved one farewell. 
 
With great cries of joy, 
a throng of heavenly hosts 
now welcome their loved one home.

Pleads her case convincingly
Hunger gleams in golden eyes

Suggests the cat's been eating
Far too much for her own good
