'I have walked across the shadow of a black dog. <br />Alas! What would happen to me? ' saying it, <br />he started crying loudly. <br /> <br />I asked, 'What's the problem then? ' <br />He said, 'I may cost my life for it.' <br /> <br />Listening to his cry, the black dog came back. <br />The man said to him, 'O dog, <br />I have crossed your shadow today. <br />What would happen to me? ' <br /> <br />The dog replied, weeping, 'Brother, <br />sorry, I don't know it at all.'<br /><br />Sayeed Abubakar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/shadow-of-a-black-dog/
