"The Poor Old Lady" ((スペイン語:"La pobre viejecita")) is a fairy tale, best known in Latin America. It was first published in the book ''Moral Tales for Formal Children'' in 1854 by the Colombian poet Rafael Pombo. Due to the importance and impact of this play in Latin American children's literature of the nineteenth century, "The Poor Old Lady" became one of the most memorable characters in the Colombian and Latin American childhood. This paradoxical but amusing story is still reprinted in compilations of children stories and nursery rhymes. ==Plot of the story== "The Poor Old Lady" tells the story of a rich old lady who has everything (clothes, goods, food.). However, in each verse of the story she is described as someone who complains about having nothing. At the end, the poor old lady dies from all the alleged complications which she had. In an ironic way the story ends with a particular phrase: “God grant that we can enjoy the poverty of that poor lady and die from the same ill.”
