A street dog,it just was lying down in a corner,
I did not notice but ,its tail was wagging at me.
At Me !!Why doggie,I am not fond of you.
when indifference strikes,why waste affection?
The posture was severe ,but the dog did not know it.
All dogs are like that,the journal does say so.
They love and you will love tehm back,
They are different from cats,
Who but love the home they live in.
Just like a lover who loved you for money,
Just like a friend who was indifferent.
Just like success which comes when unsought,
But vanishes when you need it most.
and just like money which loses its meaning when you earn it at last.
Hm...Can I stop here?
The street dog is but our mind,
Running after left overs and thinking that,
To gain love one should wag one's tail.
A well told tale?Was it?Tell me the truth.
Jayamala.
