Shadow
I met a puppy on the road,
It walked beside me as if I was known;
It caught my track pant and expelled its force,
But poor doggy failed and left,
And this sight I adored!
I picked it up and held it between my arms,
It was black, brown, white in colour
And hardly weigh some grams;
It licked my hand as if it had some taste,
Dogs bestow their love in this way!
I walked to my home and poured some milk,
It slurped in one go,
As if thirsty for some drink;
This cute little creature befriends me,
Hence, I named my puppy "Shadow,"
As it followed me!
