The Return of Puteh ( my siamese halfbreed )



This evening, 28 october, as i was mopping the floor, heard familiar 'yells' of meoww followed by my son's cries of 'mak...puteh ...puteh'. truly and real enough, there he was.. our lost siamese half breed. exactly one month we had not seen him ,as we had set off for raya hols on 29 september. n today 28 october ,he was returned to us in one piece,but very2 thin indeed. no wonder...the catnappers wont know his exact diet, anchovies with whiskas, seafood flavour only. n he had been yelling till his voice became so hoarse...meowing endlessly..in his cat language, recalling his detailed acc of how he was abducted...till he was returned today. my son was downstairs with his friend when he saw a white van stopped by abt few yards away frm our house, n puteh was scurrying from the open door n sprinting up the stairs straight into the house. the van was driven away too fast my son failed to get the plate number...i dont care...puteh is back..that's all that matters...the catnappers sure are cat lovers...i see puteh's fur is clean , his ears also cleaned xcept for his weght. he used to weigh abt 4-5 kgs now i guess barely a kg. at the moment im writing this, he is already curled up in his fav seat...

an update today ( 8 December 2008 )
Puteh is getting VIP ( very important person ) treatment: hubby dont mind him sleeping on his favourite seat...infact he lets him sleep on his chest while watching the tv....and his food..his whiskas tin is always full...refills even before its empty...

TIME

There are times

when reminiscences of yesteryears

will drown me in tears

of misdeeds...cliche's. ..charades...n camouflage

of wasted days...grievances

and of sheer bliss...pure rapture!...euphoria. ..reality denied

an everlasting 'heaven on earth’

but time, unfeeling time

disclaim reversion of those paces

Alas!!...I have to go on

yet to efface the memoirs of yesterday

is beyond my will

I can only veil souvenies of eternal memories

embedded in my heart

and relish those deja' vu

Its time again...for me to portray perspectives

in myriads of colours

For Life's own...isnt just a single ray of hue

TIME...they say

heals all wounds...Time...d best therapy

for ailments of emotions

Time again..is the antidote...for all woes

Thus, im giving in to TIME

letting time takes its pace

learning now not to dwell on bygones

of joys we've reached...& of joys that never really were!

just a make believe...of castles & gardens u made me see

....a mirage!!! ...an illusion

I was stung...down..slain

but now im up on my feet and walking again

starting anew....given a new strength

to prod on...taking life as it comes

'cos things did & do happen for reasons

with blessings in disguise thereafter

as depicted & wirtten in our life lines

Life...without this prism of colours

isnt a life to start with

and TIME...its reigning factor

TIME...and only time

withholds the answers

to questions unanswered...Que Sera Sera!!
