SILLY
LITTLE MARIAM
There
lived a little girl Mariam, who was very silly and lazy. Often she used to
wander hither and thither with no purpose. Once, as she went wandering she felt
very thirsty. She went to a pond nearby and quenched her thirst. She felt very
tired and drowsy. She slept right there on the banks of the pond.
When
she woke up it was night already. She peeped into the pond but could not see her
reflection. She got a big doubt “Am I really here or not? Well! Let me ask at
my home”.
She
went home and found the door closed. She called out “Is Mariam in there?” A
sleepy voice replied, “Oh! She must be in bed”. Mariam thought, “If Mariam is
at home, I am not Mariam”. Saying this, she went away.
