Spotty’s surprise
I knew of a stray named Spotty.
Who lived in the city's main hospital's vicinity.
Of the nurses he was a favourite.
Once a week they fed him rice and meat.
He surprised them by leaving on their apron-paw marks,dirty.
Born in the year 1968, my childhood was spent amidst the beautiful scenic landscape of a small town in India, Ranchi. Though an engineer by qualification, reading, writing and cooking are my passions. Another thing that I am passionate about is my country, India. As they say, a lifetime is probably not enough to explore the whole of India. Currently based in Kolkata, I can be reached at gdutta17@gmail.com.

Engaging in some lyrical athletics whilst painting pictures with words and pounding the pavement. I run; blog; write poetry; chase after my kids & drink coffee.
I didn’t get the last word. Love the verse..

The word is dirty….the stray would jump and leave dirty paw marks on the aprons.
