The Family

the family
COPYRIGHT-poetess- MRS.ANJALI DENANDI,MOM

in a village,there was a family.
the family was poor.
five members were in the family.
the father was a patient of cancer.
the advance-death was sure;
the mother was a maid-servant.
three sons were in the family.
the father could not earn.
and  they had not sufficient money,also ;
so the father could not take medicines also.
the mother worked in that house,
where money was too much;
the person had many coconut-trees;
the person earned by the selling of fruits.
oneday,all three sons climbed up on the trees;
and gave fruits to the owner of the trees;
yes, the person's maid was their mother.
the three sons earned by collecting of fruits.
they carried these and gave to the owner.
the fruit-shop was in the market;
they reached by their own feet.
walked and walked......
the fruits were on their heads.
by that way they could eat only one-week in the month.
on other days they had no food for eating.
after some day, the father had gone, forever.
he died.
all four members were then ate nine days in the month.
oneday, there came a rich-foreigner,
he asked,
"hello ! the eldest boy !
are you going with me,
in my country,
shall be my servant ? "
the eldest son said , 
" i do not know,
kindly, you ask to my mother ! '
then he asked to his mother;
and the mother said,
"yes, sir !"
the boy reached in the foreign;
and sent money to his family.
then ,all three members took foods in the whole month.
and the eldest son took food in the whole month , in the master's house.
they said,
 "oh ! god ! thanks !"
