Every day the bond is renewed Is it my imagination Or do I see the Buddha glow Do I see an aura surround the cat? What is this strange synergy? I take up my camera and click I try and capture the intensity When I reach home I pick up my brushes and paint Some strange electricity Filters through my fingers Its like I'm possessed I paint day and night The glow of the Buddha The aura of the cat And when I'm done A lady from Vancouver buys my painting “It captured my heart”, “I found it mysterious and alluring”, And now the cat is gone The house is sold But in my heart is the picture Which touched me and touched A lady in Vancouver • Kumkum Ramchandani is a Mississauga-based artist and writer.
