THE DONKEY BOYS POEM GRADE- IX

Summary
The poem written by Albert Rowe talks about the pathetic condition of two boys from Spain. They are called ‘The Donkey Boys’ instead of ‘The School Boys’ i.e. students as they go to the seashore with their donkey. Once in the early morning, the writer saw them in the scorching sun collecting driftwood. When the boys saw the writer they waved and smiled at him and again became busy in their work. They were collecting light sticks for bedding sorting out of the driftwood. The white donkey stood there without moving and its eyes and ears were sleepy. The donkey was carrying a large basket that was to be filled by the sticks. The donkey followed them quietly as well when they moved collecting the sticks.


One day the writer saw them passing the school riding on their donkey. Children were playing in the ground but the boys did not give attention to them but kept on riding to the sea with their beautiful and innocent smile.
