Family That Saved.

A village family lived there The mother was so silent Worked hard for sustenance To feed her children in time The elder one got the chances Great help to the mother always Water from the well he took The pots were kept full always The paddy field he maintained Good harvest helped them to survive The little kerosene lamp that hung In the thatched roof brightened An old radio sung the song An old radio told the news Inspire the young ones for future Send them to schools for study To open the mind, for better vision The mother prayed well for future Schools they sent the little ones By hunger or not they studied well Together he knew the value of letters Together he knew value of work Work always worship he understood The cattle shed cleaned in mornings The cow dung he removed from cowshed The manures he done well in field A great hope of prosperity in family The stomachs were full, happiness all The mother, felt so proud of her son In an evening there came a post The happy news of an appointment letter A suitable placement the son got Still he loved his village life Still he worked hard every time The new assignment he joined in pride.
