I fell on my knees

cried out from my heart

endearingly poured out my love

implored,implored ,implored

the tonal varieties I assumed

surprised and  shocked me

my soul struck on her

could not let go

so in the darkness

I called out in reply to her meows

after a length of time

she came closer

watched me intently

it seemed she realized

that I needed her love more than she needed me

she accepted the bowl of milk

and guided me to the terrace

where she came and sat next to me

climbing on to my lap

talking to my daughter

we sat like that the three of us

for what seemed a life time

allowing us to caress her

rub and gently love her

she left later

after such intense conversation

there is a long wait

another time, another rendezvous!
