She came in life, bend I had to

I never bend, but I had to,
Her to understand I had to.

Revoking my life’s firm resolve,
Spoil a pushy friend I had to.

She came as if from nowhere-land,
My all to her lend I had to.  

I always had walked my own ways,
Go the way cats wend, I had to.

I could stand no cats in my life,
But seeing her mend I had to.

I often find her in the wrong,
Yet, to defend her I had to.

I prided me as my own man,
Bend to her command I had to.

Ghazal |25.01.2023| cat, humour, she, wife

Poet’s note: When a pussy cat became a pushy pat in my house…. But wait, a pussy cat or a pushy girl or wife in one’s life, it makes little difference and matters little for this tongue-in-cheek ghazal.
