come tomorrow




when this tiny creature*, immobile on the morning platform, allowed me to softly approach, i was honoured...and gratified. but then i saw the helpless look in her eye, and her shivering feathers, and my delight turned to dismay.i sought the telephone number of the animal-ambulance; before i could write it down, she hopped lamely into the neverending shrubbery.
and then my train arrived.
and life went on.

    You should read "a tale of three racoons" written recently by my good friend Alesandra. You can find it here:
