Charlie, my dear.

My Dear Charlie
Bodhisattwa Parekh


Charlie was my pet cat.

Dark black velvet skin

With reddish eyes.

At night, he was looking dangerous.



He loved me too much.

When I was at home,

He always belonged with me.

When I was going to the office,

Mainly at night shift,

He came with me until the gate.

Surprisingly, he didn't forget

For receiving me at the gate.

We played the games.

I loved to touch his silky body.

He always slept with me, at my bed.





Suddenly a road accident took his life.

I arranged his resting place.

In my garden, with tears.

Where he loved to spend time.



Many known people advised me

To buy another pet.

But I couldn't.

None can take the place of Charlie.

I pray to God for the departed soul.
