Summer Faunae
Mercy is a bowl of water
Birds in the garden quench fluttering together
While squirrels have dips in a whisper
And a cat silently pouncing softer
And for a bucketful of water
Cows and calves at my gate gather
Sip and lap all together
Then a limping stray dog burnt
Badly out with its drooling tongue
Wearied with eyes half open
Looking pitiably for a sip inbetween..
