Designed to be Together
It is never too late for anyone to discover his/herself in life. Discovering this talent of writing makes me feel elated...
A lover of pets is
He, he lost the only
Pet left for him few
Months back in road accident
The pet was killed by
A teen who took his
Parent’s car out, he’s
Got little knowledge about driving
When he discovered that he
Has ran over something instead
Of stopping her ran away
With the car but pursued
He was caught up with
And brought back to the
Scene of the incident but
Claimed ignorance of the development
Started pleading for he took
His parent’s car without their
Consent and would not want
The matter gets to them
After scolding words from nearby
People, he was let go
Since this incident has he
Felt a lacuna in him
A feeling of emptiness in
Him was overwhelming and opened
For he acts “shadowy” of
Himself in all he does
His job which he once
Said gives him pleasure seems
Not to give him pleasure
Again from his actions to it
His neighbor has a female
Dog and it was discovered
To be pregnant few days
After the death of his pet
On noticing the changes in
The physique of the animal
He went to his neighbor to
Tell him of his interest
If the dog delivers safely
I would need one male
Out of its puppies he
Told his neighbor his mind
His neighbor told him that
Those be his source of
Income and there be many
Who had booked ahead of him
Pleaded with him to get
Him one for he be
Ready to add to the
Money he would pay for it
I do not do that
Neighbor relied, first people are
Firstly attended to. That is
My motto in this life.
No cheating for I do not
Like being cheated too. It
Is fair play for all
First come first serve
Only thing I can say
Is sometimes people would book
Puppies but they won’t come
For what booked for again
You may pray such happens
On this, if it does happen
You would be considered for
One, he promised him
Dog gave birth and he
Started going there, hoping against
Hope but as far as
He could tell not promising
However, one of the puppies
Male likes him so much
Would be wagging its tail
Immediately it sees him expressing joy
He noticed this as well
As owner of the dog.
One day the person who
Want to buy it and he met
The person saw how the
Puppy reacted to the guy
Asked from him if related
To the seller, replied no
He wants one puppy but
All has been booked before
Him. He told him that he
Would release the puppy to him
I still have a pet
He said, apart from that,
Your interaction between it is
Fascinating. Would want you have it
He was elated to hear
This, and his dream eventually
Comes true. The exchange of
Buyer was completed that day.
Soon came for the dog
And started taking care of
It as his baby, resting
On his bosom everyday
The puppy eats from his
Plate, drink from his cup
And his lost joy, happiness
And radiance returned as before
His mind, heart, body was
In his work again. The
Pet too could not wish
For better owner than he.
