With
a piggy bank in her hand,
ran
fervently to d' shop counter
d'
famed pharmacy in the street,
stood
in d' crowd of d' customers
Wished
to talk to d' shop keeper,
attempted
calling him a few times
d'
kindergarten girl of 7 yrs tried,
but
d' busy owner couldn't notice
Utterly
disheartened, annoyed,
put
d' bank on the counter table
d'
buyers-owner all looked at her
and
watched d' unusual parable
The
curious shopkeeper asked,
Hello
dear! what do you want?
I
need to buy only some miracle,
d'
novice tone told in an instant
D'
owner didn't follow her words,
neither
any of those customers
all
stared at her in utter surprise,
my
dear, it's not available here
Surmised,
he might be telling a lie,
she
announced it loud and bold
I've
ample coins in d' piggy bank,
how
much u want for it? she told
I
must buy one from your store,
but
why do you need d' miracle?
a
gentleman there funnily asked,
to
buy it, asked your class teacher?
My
brother got hit on his forehead,
in
football match a few days back
parents
hurried him to a Hospital,
vomited,
had a terrible headache
Papa
never says a word about him,
I
kept asking him times and again
he
will be back soon, don't bother,
but
he didn't come home since then,
Mummy
preys d' God, keeps crying,
papa
had no funds for his treatment
said,
only some miracle can save him
didn't
ponder about my piggy bank
Papa
hasn't that much, I've enough,
d'
entire sum saved is with me here,
she
lifted her earthen piggy bank up
and
hit it hard on the pharmacy floor
Gathered
the coins with her palm,
counted
giving the entire attention
in
lucid words stated, full 37rupees,
not
less, d' buyers watched in fun
An
alien uncle gave a sweet smile,
"You've
enough coins, oh my God!
an
ample amount for that miracle",
she
got delighted, happy to hear
Uncle
came home, met her papa
accepted
d' amount from the girl
assured
her to bring the miracle,
save
her brother, no doubt at all
Clots
took off from inside d' head,
with
utmost care operation done
pain
relieved, her bro' recovered,
uncle,
an eminent neurosurgeon
He
came back home fit and fine,
resumed
his activities as earlier
lucky
to meet such solacing soul,
prompt
action, pacifying manners
Middle
class, the worst cursed lot,
trek
through many ups and downs
try
to cross all d' curves-crevices,
just
to survive, not to win a crown
Mummy
asked dad in utter surprise,
how
u managed, made it possible?
dad
admirably looked at me, told,
not
me, she did d' tangible miracle
