POEM_: Of Cats, Dogs and Lovers

.
Aloof, independent,
visiting a thousand other places,
they come when they want to, when they need to.
Whether they love, they only know.
Regal animals, cats are treated as such.

Expressing their love with all their being,
they lose their very identity in the beloved.
And they never wait to be stroked, yet
‘dog’ is an insult in every language I know!

You the cat, dear,
and I the dog,
can we ever be happy together?


- Owais
