In the twilight of an beautiful eve <br />When the Sun is delicious red, <br />Comes a poodle for a walk <br />Along the river bed. <br /> <br />The poodle's eye catches upon <br />A stray dog with a bone, <br />Comes and talks with the dog <br />With cold looks and a sarcastic tone. <br /> <br />Says the poodle'My friend, dear <br />I feel sympathized <br />the way you suck that sort of thing <br />makes my heart agonize'. <br /> <br />'you wonder and roam here and there, <br />with hopes that you may find <br />to fill your empty tummy with <br />food of some ugly kind'. <br /> <br />'My master's place I do dwell, <br />offers me a splendid meal <br />chicken stew and egg muffin, <br />with sausage rolls to deal. <br /> <br />When the sky's dark and clouds burst out <br />I have shelter over my head, <br />But friend you drench all that eve <br />Along this river bed. <br /> <br />Friend, its fate that's all I say <br />that you breathe such a breath, <br />Indeed to live such a life <br />Is worse that to attain death.' <br /> <br />The poor dog listens silently <br />And being the least disturbed, <br />looks up to the poodle <br />and asks if that's what he heard <br /> <br />Says He the poor thing.... <br /> <br />'Brother look at your shoulder, <br />That collar is no better than a boulder <br />you're tied up dear, always <br />when you eat, walk, bark, run or laze. <br /> <br />I have the sky walking with me, <br />In free air I do breathe <br />My life may be tough as you see, <br />But that doesn't matter and am happy, <br />As I have no one controlling me <br />I am glad that I am free'.<br /><br />zubiya surti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/who-is-happier/
