A river, A lake, a Mountain And the Garden

I'll get you a river,
a lake,
a mountain
and a garden,
You can then
imagine
your kids running
and lying
over a sunflowers carpet
under an apple tree
like Adam's and Eve's
Eating sinless fruits.
Then you sleep under a sparkling sky.
They try
try
and try
to capture a star,
they cry
but you tell them
"Don't worry
One day,
You can fly
and become one
like the river
the lake
the mountain
and this beautiful garden"

However they said:
"
But this lake
has a black fate"
You whisper them a story
"Once upon a time,
There was a lake called
Black Fate
the villagers believed it had a monster
A carnivorous creature,
with long teeth
and sharp horns...
like the unicorn's
One day...
A young man...
with a strong faith..
and an invisible iron heart
went against the will of the villagers
He jumped in,
swam and swam
deep and shallow
and then exclaimed
"I am, I am...

the one,
the carnivore
the taboos destroyer
the monster killer
"

everyone started to swim in
behind him..."
A lesson to learn
Never and ever believe in traditions
they aren't facts
it's a monster that give you
limitations.
That never let you enjoy
These river, lake, mountain, and the garden.

How are you my dear friend Ti3gib? Why were you banned from ES?

I got back there few days ago, just to read posts more than posting, but i saw you being banned for life.

Sometime, a sacrifice of one brave man makes a big impact on a society than a million hard-working cowards.

What if he never knew about the 'monster', and found out about the legend later?

Do you think he'll admit to the villagers that he didn't jump in because he was brave, but because it was a hot Summer day?

Well, in that case, I think he would admit to them mockingly that what he did coincidently was a breakthrough discovery that reshaped the entire village's ideology and mythological thoughts!

Ah, but because the villagers feel humiliated deep inside, they would look for a way to put the young man down.

Maybe to make him think: What if there WAS a monster? You would be dead now! Think of that! See, you should be thankful there was nothing. Next time, son, don't take these risks, you don't know where the monster will show up.
