taiwan poocha---or begining

Vinod papa was still asking for cats and dogs
It started one day, just like that
he asked mi for a dog or a cat
hee hee.. i knew better, by then i had given up
asking, but he was persistent

so finally mi gets him a poster
of that dark brown almost orange coloured cat
the one that is staring at the gold fish in the bowl
poor vinod didn't have a chance.

he fell for it like crazy
everyday he used to wait for mi to come back
and ask her for the cat
finally smart mi came up with a story

this cat was from taiwan--taiwan poocha
and someone from the office was bringing it
so that meant it could come slowly
taiwan was very far off

vinod waited and waited and waited
it took him atleast a year to understand that
the poocha from taiwan was never coming
good lesson learnt the hard way

we never really asked for pets after this
the poocha from taiwan taught us a good lesson
we learnt much later that those poochas actually
come from persia and have nothing to do with taiwan
