Ashes Knocks Unceasingly For Food

It was just four o'clock in the morning While I was sleeping, one cat demanded to have food. This cat didn't meow But by intensity of her knocking, I knew this was urgent. Usually, this cat knocked and then she waited. This time, she knocked unceasingly. I gave in and opened the door immediately Because, my wife may be awakened by more knocking. After opening the door, I pretended doing nothing. I returned to bed, covered myself with a blanket and waited. In the hurry, this cat jumped up on our bed She waited for a while, and then, she walked away, very sad. Suddenly, I had pity on this cat. I sprang out of bed and she followed my steps. This cat didn't eat much of her last evening meal. Being so hungry, she swallowed her meal. 02222015 NHIEN NGUYEN MD Translation of XIN ĂN, ASHES GÕ CỬA LIÊN HỒI - Poem by NHIEN NGUYEN MD Đang khi tôi ngủ trên giường Mèo thì gõ cửa, bốn giờ, xin ăn. Mèo này chẳng có nói năng Nhưng nghe tiếng gõ, biết là khẩn trương. Thường thì mèo gõ rồi chờ Lần này, mèo gõ liên hồi không ngơi. Tôi đành mở cửa mà thôi Sợ mèo gõ nữa, vợ tôi giật mình. Mở rồi, tôi lại làm thinh Lên giường, chăn đắp, nằm yên tôi chờ. Mèo thì vội nhảy lên giường Mèo chờ một chút, buồn đời bỏ đi. Tôi nằm, nghĩ tội con mèo Vội vàng tôi dậy, mèo đi theo liền. Tối qua mèo chẳng ăn nhiều Sáng nay đói quá nuốt liền phần ăn. 02222015 NHIEN NGUYEN MD
