Snow White
One day, there was a queen sitting near a very beautiful window while tailoring and seeing the snow.
Accidentally, her finger was pierced by a sewing needle so that three drops of blood dripped out. The
drops of blood fell down on the snow. The red color of the blood which was stuck in the white of the
snow looked very pretty. Suddenly the queen thought “If only i had a child whose skin were as white as
snow and whose lips were as red as blood”.

As the time went by, finally a queen gave birth of a very pretty princess whose skin was as white as snow
and whose lips were as red as blood. The queen grew up as a very pretty and kind-hearted girl. She was
called Snow White. However, when Snow White was about teenager, the queen died because of an
illness. After the queen’s death, the king married again.  This new queen was wicked and hated Snow
white.  The queen gave orders that Snow White was to be treated as a servant.

Everyday the queen stood in front of her magic mirror while asking “Who is the most beautiful woman
in the land?” and the mirror always answered, “You are the most beautiful one of all.” The new queen
asked the same question everyday and the mirror always answered the same thing. But one day the
mirror answered that the queen was so beautiful but Snow White was much more beautiful than the
queen. It made the queen so angry that she gave orders to one of her Huntsmen to take Snow White
into the woods and kill her.

The Huntsman had such a kind heart that he couldn’t do the deed. He told her to run away.  In her
fleeing into the woods, she found a place in which seven dwarfs lived.  Their house was small and
strange. Snow White entered the little house and found it very untidy. Then, she started to clean up the
entire house. In the upstairs she found seven little beds.  She was so exhausted that she stretched out
on one of the beds. Not long after that, she was asleep on the bed.When the Dwarfs came home they
were surprised to find Snow White and after some argument, decided to let her stay.  She promised to
cook and look after them. She lived there together happily.

Unfortunately, The Queen discovered the place where Snow White was living and disguising herself as a
witch. She then took a poisoned apple and set out for the Dwarfs cottage. She gave Snow White the
poisoned apple to eat and as soon as she bit the apple, she sank into unconsciousness.

Thinking she was dead, the Dwarfs built a glass coffin and put her in it. For days she lay in the forest in
her glass coffin. One day, the Prince was riding through the forest looking for Snow White and found
her. He leaned over and kissed her. She opened her eyes and sat up with a smile. Everyone was happy
at that time. The Prince took Snow White to his palace where they were married and lived happily ever
after.

Flamboyant Tree

Along the road to cliffs and ravines

I see the flamboyant trees are neatly lined up

as if welcoming people who will come

Manyar birds and finches are still competing to be the winner

In my country, in a place as far and lonely as this

You can find peace more than anything

Make people admire, stare, and stay for a long time

At the end of the road, there is a spring

The squeaks like nature’s sound

Flamboyant is a color, a wound healer, a complement to taste

Fox and A Cat


One day, a cat and a fox were having a conversation. The fox, who was a conceited creature,
boasted how clever she was. “Why, I know at least a hundred tricks to get away from our
mutual enemies, the dogs,” she said.

“I know only one trick to get away from dogs,” said the cat. “You should teach me some of
yours!”.

“Well, maybe someday, when I have the time, I may teach you a few of the simpler ones”,
replied the fox airily.

Just then they heard the barking of a pack of dogs in the distance. The barking grew louder and
louder – the dogs were coming in their direction! At once the cat ran to the nearest tree and
climbed into its branches, well out of reach of any dog. “This is the trick I told you about, the
only one I know”, said the cat. “Which one of your hundred tricks are you going to use?”.

The fox sat silently under the tree, wondering which trick she should use. Before she could
make up her mind, the dogs arrived. They fell upon the fox and tore her to pieces.

Moral: A single plan that works is better than a hundred doubtful plans
