A tattered coolie who was born in a leap year that comes home after a strenuous day's work? <br />He loves his coquetry daughter. <br />Her mother has disappeared when she was an infant. <br />He thinks that he has to make a cordon to protect her from the ruffian the apothecary's son. <br />His wife eloped through this rickety fence and he is scared of his precious daughter's future. <br />He dreams one day his daughter goes right of the passage with rituals. <br />But who knows and how long this skeleton survives with his sing-song?<br /><br />nimal dunuhinga<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-consumptive-coolie-s-gossamer-daughter/
