THE RHYTHM OF THE BUTTERFLY Contemporary Poetry Anthology by Santosh Kumar Biswa
The Cat and the Dog The cat and the dog, Both are cute, Both are small, And both are hungry. Trust not the cat, ‘Cause it says, “When my owner dies, I shall get enough to eat.” Trust the dog ‘Cause it says, “As long as my owner lives, I shall have enough to eat.” The cat attempts to hurt, when mocked, but the dog enjoys the mock. You have the choice, without delay, for the best.
