Cost of the Cat

The helpless woman appealed to the divine
If I get a child, I give you my hairs anytime
To commit to her words, she was uncertain
She gave few hairs that touched the spine
The wealthy businessman came by a ship
Violent storms made the travel a hardship
‘I will donate the poor’, was his worship
To donate, I sell my house, he told in a sip
The ship sailed safely coming to the shore
His thoughts perplexed even to sell his door
His house will really worth more than a crore
But announced to sell his house in a roar
Fixed the price of his house as one rupee
All had come to buy the house in a spree
His condition was to buy his cat not for free
Fixed the price of his cat, hard to agree
Selling his house and cat, he donated 1 rupee
Committing to his words, he thought he is free
Ask from the lord, not all that you see
If you have given the layman, give it to me.

| I like how you seem to have made it into a real story. I liked it. Different. Rhymes well :) |
