My neighbour happily
went on holiday
leaving his doggie behind
a  cycle went over its feet--carelessly
the rider rushed away-furtively!

the poor creature
wailed in pain--it was in agony-
my wife and I took it
to the vet nearby--in great hurry
(the bill was $ 175- the vet was quite greedy-
mind you, I am just a pensioner)
it smiled as it left the clinic
its tail it wagged as though to say
'thank you, you made my day!'.

My neighbour returned
a week later and this story
he gathered from a friend Andrew Leigh
(who passed by that morning
coincidentally)

he got into a rage
banged my door and shouted maniacally
' Why didn't you get my permission
before you sent Nancy
to the clinic of Dr Henry?'
