Meo and Pinuka


Meo was simply looking outside the window at the garden,a small white plate kept next to him and a small golden orange colored fish inside the plate.
He was supposed to eat..thats what everybody felt..and put the fish in his plate.. but how can he eat..for the world it was a fish that cat is supposed to eat..but for him it was his Pinuka.he simply looked at Pinuka and he could not look further..he started looking outside..in the garden..he remembered it was this garden from where he had first seen Pinuka.
One day Meo was roaming around the garden and saw the little girl bringing a glass jar in the house. He jumped and immediately ran back to the house.The little girl had kept the jar on the table and gone with her mother inside the room.Meo was so curious, he jumped on the table and put his nose on the jar.
'Hey there, are you guest in this house? I am Meo. Glad to meet you.' Meo said.
There was small fish inside, looking at meo with curious yet frightened eyes..Meo liked its golden orange color so much. The fish said little uneasily with those blinking eyes,
'H..Hi there, I am Pinuka', I did not come here on my wish, it was this girl's wish.My wish was to swim the waters of Tobu Island. '
'Oh you are from Tobu Iceland?' Meo asked surprisingly. 'I don't even know from where I am , I came here when I was very little kitten'.
Pinuka did not respond, Meo, knocked gently on the glass of the jar and called 'Pinuka, Pinuka,why are you not talking?'
Pinuka did not say anything for a long time , then said 'I am missing my parents and my little brother,they are in Tobu Island. I was swimming and did not listen to them, went far away and got caught. I wantto go to them'.
Meo said 'Pinuka, you are not alone, I am there with you, I am your friend'Pinuka's eyes suddenly raised with anger she said 'You are a cat, you eat us, you are not a friend, please go'.
Meo kept quite and climbed down of the table with the heavy heart.Meo was alone, he wanted a friend. Being in this house from the time he had known to see the world, he had not got any friend. The little girl simply got toys and pets just as a fancy. There was no time when Meo had felt a soft caress on his beautiful fur. Meo thought ..thought and thought..and fell to sleep under the table.
Meo opened the eyes with a loud noise. He got so frightened. He suddenly jumped away from the table. There was a loud breaking noise and lots of glasses was on the ground. The mother was scolding the little girl and took her inside the room. Pinuka was lying on the floor and water spilled all over.
Meo, came near Pinuka and said 'Pinuka,Pinuka, get up' . But Pinuka did not get up. Little that he knew what had happened, the little girl was so angry because she wanted a pony now. She threw anything she got at her hand..and one of the things she threw went straight and hit the glass jar. It fell on the floor. The mother came outside to clean the mess. She saw Meo near the fish. She collected all the glass pieces and wiped off the floor and took Pinuka in the hand and looked at it with a deep sigh.
Then she took Meo's plate and placed the fish in it and put in in front of Meo. 'Pinuka, please wake up, I will take you to your parents.' Meo said and kept sitting near the plate. He knew that Pinuka will not wake up. But he still wanted Pinuka to wake up.
He wanted so much that Pinuka wakes up.

The window


This lonely window that I always see
Keep asking the same questions to me
The world that I show you how do u perceive
Is it what I see or is it what you believe
When the clouds run down the earth to heal
Do they ever feel the earth's pain in real
Sun hiding through the roofs of a humble hut
Does he ever know the hut's deepest cut
People moving slowly on a busy street
Have they ever realised whom they have to meet
Whirling leaves through wind so drawn apart
Does the wind see their breaking hearts
Why don't see through me with my own eyes
I will show you the real world before it dies

Search

My search begins when I close my eyes
The search is never ending taking me thousand miles

Thousand miles still more to cross
The journey so far to and from places near my heart

There's this place never visited that I search
I believe its present, without its existence

Thats the place where i would like to be
A place so quiet like that lonely tree

But the address is lost and the way unclear
Its far away but to my heart it still seems near

Small steps, long steps or no steps everyday
To see the glimpse of the darkest ray

Several milestones achieved and several undone
The traveler, the road and the destination is one
