The Bombay Grocery-Nc-W

The Bombay Grocery (Indian)- North Carolina

Shyam*, finds cat food at special rate near the door.
Goes to check out to manager of the grocery store
Doubting manager asks to bring cat if he has one
Shyam returns with his small cat to buy food anon.

Next day Shyam comes with a bag in his hand
And ask the manager to put his hand to the end
Manager puts his hand and shouts “Poo,Doodie pure”
Shyam says, “ yes, sir, I want the toilet paper sure” 

=================================

* Shyam is an Indian name. Shyam also means Black-cloud colour. It is one of the name of 
Lord Krishna. It happens to be the name of one of my grandson living in Charlotte (NC)

Haha, fun poem, Dr. Ram! about my zodiac, when we are born, our sun and moon are usually in different "houses." IN fact, my moon book says that 200 years ago, Moon was more important than Sun sign. Today we give horoscope by sun sign. My moon book can tell me YOUR moon if you want to know. You just feed your birthday to it and the chart figures your moon for you! Luv, Andrea

I got a good chuckle out of this one...Shyam, your grandson did this or is this just a funny write?..Shyam's definition or translation into English is black-cloud color? Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work..I appreciate you selecting my work as a contest winner...I know that it must be very difficult to pick winners from the so many wonderful writes that are entered into these contest..Sara
