Hard of hearing the atheist father
and the God-fearing mother,
their four sons accordingly named as
Fatalist, Nihilist, Optimist and Pessimist
who were in their adoloscence.
A moustached Matchmaker roams around their vicinity
regarding the proposal of remote farmstead girls.
Mother and father overjoyed both sides
but the pig-headed sons' likings
very hard to extract.
Likewise the matchmaker overestimate the farm girls.
At last their marriages were finalised before the christmas carols.
The four newly wedded adamants
after their unusual carnival like wedding
get ready for the house-warming.
Stepping towards the four directions
under the humpback bridge
one goes to north
one to south
and the rest east and west
with their chubby piggy banks
like old wives' tale.
