THE BULL AND THE
FROGS
It
was a damp rainy day. The pond was full of water. Some small frogs were hopping
and playing happily.
A
bull came up to the pond to drink some water. After drinking water, the bull
bellowed loudly. On hearing the bellowing sound the little frogs got
frightened.
They
hopped away in a hurry to their Grandpa at home.
On
seeing his grandchildren’s hurry, the grandpa asked, “Well children! What is
the matter?”
One
of the little frogs croaked in a feeble voice, “Grandpa, we saw a very big
animal at the pond. He had a terrible loud voice. We were all frightened”.
The
grandpa frog spread his legs and puffed his cheeks and asked “Was the animal as
big as this?” The answer came “He was much bigger”.
The
grandpa puffed still more and asked “Was he still bigger?” The answer was “Much
bigger, Much bigger”.
The
grandpa puffed, puffed and puffed until his lungs burst he fell down.

FOOLISHNESS
