Unseen Passage

By lavanya

There was a lion who was the king of the forest. He was big, fierce and strong. All the other animals brought him gifts from every comer of the forest. They were really afraid of him.

​

King must have ministers to help him’, the lion thought one day. And he sent for the fox.

‘You are known to be very wise and clever. I want you to be my Home Minister.’ “Many many thanks for this honour, your majesty”, said the fox, bowing low.

​

Then he called a panther and said, “You are known to be very alert and swift-footed. You will be my Defence Minister.”

“Thank you, Sir,” said the panther.

The next to be summoned was a crow.

“You can fly high and can see distant objects. So you’ll be my Foreign Minister.”

​

I am grateful to you, my master,” said the crow. The three ministers swore to remain

loyal to the king. The lion, in return promised to feed and protect them.
