Fisherman

Saifur Rahman

...................................

...................................

...................................

Three days he was at home. 

My good luck I have seen him in day light.

I had no sympathy to his frozen hands that never supported food to my mouth.

I remember only his lamp light face 

His wife said once he was a very successful fisherman. 

And she began 'once upon a time..................'

I was bored by her tale

She said '' I want not my son to keep the tradition"  

Why?. ................... I gave her conformation, I was listening fisherman's story.

She replied "  I don't want another such death"
