Long, long
ago
In a
foothills of a still active volcano
Far away
from the nearest city
There was a
couple of farmer
Having a
small field cultivated by many plantations
Living in a
tiny house
Being happy
with their life at that moment
The farmers
usually sold their harvest to the villages nearby
Big city
didn’t want to take their fruits and vegetables
Because of
the high standard applied
But it’s
okay for them
They were very
happy and thankful with their current condition
Their
plantations sometimes were threatened by many things
It’s not a
big deal,
Together they
could get rid of those problems
But
everything was changed
When the
volcano was erupted
People were
evacuated and sought for shelters
Boiled sticky
red liquid called lava
Burned everything,
include the farmers’ field and tiny house
Finally the
eruption stopped
But not the
catastrophe for people and the farmers
The farmers
looked for their field and dream house
But there
was nothing but rubles and ashes
They were
in a great grieve
They gazed
at nothing,
Didn’t know
what to do
A year had
been passed
The couple
still didn’t know what to do
Came, the
moment of truth, the moment of decision
The woman
decided that she was going to go to the city,
Seeking for
betterment
The man was
confused;
He didn’t
want to leave
He wanted
to stay as a villager with his simplistic life
Then it couldn’t
be helped,
They were
separated by different point of views
Six years
had passed
The man had
been withstanding painful days
Of living
in a land burned by lava
Every day,
he cleaned the field and rebuilt his tiny house
All by
himself
Until
shades of gray turn into brown again
He
sometimes wandered to what happened to the woman
Who became
a citizen
He thought
she must be very happy,
Immediately
after she left him and their promised dreamland
Years by
years had been passed
The burned
land turned heavenly
Plantations
grew even bigger and fresher than before
the land was burned
The man
became a farmer again
A successful
farmer
Not only could
he sell his products to the villages nearby,
But then the
city also accepted fruits and vegetable rejected long time ago
One day the
farmer was going to sell his harvests to the city
There he saw
a very familiar entity
Who didn’t realize
that the man was watching
The man took
time to realize that it was the woman,
The woman was changing
She put flashy
things all over her body
And now
having smiles that could astonish people
Her talk
was more convincing than before
She seemed
to be happy
But the man
couldn’t tell
Whether it’s
a good or bad transformation
Not long,
there was an apparently
Good
looking trait and appearance boy approached her
But the man
couldn’t tell whether the boy was an angel or a devil
Those
citizens went away
After the
farmer unpacked the customers’ wants
He went
back to the village
On the way back home
he looked up at the vast blue sky
Smiling...On the way back home
he looked up at the vast blue sky
