A Drowing Tragedy
A Drowing Tragedy
My friend Dawood is very fond of swimming. He is a good swimmer. One day as usual we made a
programme to go to Okhla for swimming as soon as we reached there. The aged and the children were
taking bath near the bank. However, some of the young boys were swimming in the mid-stream.
It was very deep there. Currents of water flowed up and down. Suddenly, a boy was caught in the
currents. He began to cry for help. A dare-devil jumped into the waves. He brought him out with
great difficulty. After some time he came to senses. In the meantime, his parents had reached
the hospital. I felt furry that happy occasions sometimes turn into grief.
A young shepherd used to graze his sheep in a jungle. One day he thought of a strange joke.
He shouted out “wolf! Wolf!” and the villagers ran to his help, with sticks in their hands.
But there was no wolf to be seen, and the shepherd stood laughing. They cursed him and went away.
After a few days he repeated the same joke. The villagers came to his help again, but his joke
One day, a wolf actually came there. The shepherd cried. “Wolf! Wolf!” at the top of his voice.
But the villagers did not attend to his cries. He did not return till sunset. They went to the
jungle and saw him as well as many sheep torn to pieces. He lost his life for a silly joke.
