To love is not a sin

My life was dull and void
Full of caring people
But none I owned myself

Balancing the bamboo bridge
My steps echoed monotony
On a cold slumber evening

Hearing the moans and cries
I quickly diverted my feet
Disarraying my phase

Ah! Abandoned as it seemed
He yearned for my warm hand
To hug his soft body

The moment I picked him up
He wriggled inside my arms
As if never to leave me

Was thrilled to realize
Of my dream come true
As stars too nodded in blinks

Reached home to share my joy
With my dream boy hand in hand
But hiding him behind

I was welcomed by a kitty
A loving gift of Mama & Papa
For this single lonely girl

My eyes expanded matching my parents
Who froze for a moment
Upon seeing my treasure

There was a roar of joy & laughter
For the puppy and kitty
Drank milk from the same cup

Cartoons awaited on TV
As I was never satiated
With my lovely Pretty & Browny

The two were then made to sit
On either side of the vase
Atop the colourless idiot box

While Pretty was sitting prettily
Browny was about to jump in panic
Which Papa caught right in his camera

They are playing now in the garden
Who drink milk and eat fish
From the same red bowl

I don’t understand why people wonder
When they see this phenomenon
Of love among enemies

Let me reveal you something….

My life is full of life now
For I understood that
To love is not a sin
To love is only a win
