AN APPLE . ONE DAY...
Watch it first!!
Once upon a time there lived a clueless boy who lives on the hill, in a blue little cottage.
He sat outside his cottage munching on a apple.
Chomp chomp chomp. Happy happy happy.
He bit on something really hard. He spit it out and saw, on his palm, sits a shiny brown little seed.
A random idea came to his mind and he thought to himself " I am going to grow a APPLE TREE!"
He started digging a hole, a deep deep hole, to plant the seed in.
Then he thought, this is way too slow with hands, he needs something to use to dig the hole.
He went into the cottage and digged out a piece of mahjong paper and with bright red crayons (as red as the colour of my blog), he wrote, " I'll like to plant an apple seed. If you are kind enough, please leave me something to use to dig a hole." and he pasted it on a bucket. He left the bucket by the door and yawnzzzz....he said to himself, " what a tiring day!" ZZZZzzzZZZZZ.... He went into the cottage and hopped into his bed, good night! he fell asleep drooling.
Next day morning he woke up and found, in the bucket, lies spoons and forks and pots! He was so delighted and surprised!
"Then I shall start work!" thought the boy.
He spent his whole day digging deep. As the day went by, more and more people past by and many volunteered to help him dig. The hole got deeper and firmer and soon, a perfect depth was reached. He dropped the seed in and they all pushed the soil back. They even threw soil at each other. Yes, they had so much fun.
Boy stopped and sulked. Everyone stopped and asked boy why he is sulking.
" We have not enough water to water the plant." said the boy.
Everyone ran ack to their homes and carried buckets of water and emptied it all into tthe bucket. They altered the note " I want to grow a apple tree but I don't have enough water. If you are kind enough, leave me some. Thank you." and he pasted it on a bucket. He left the bucket by the door and yawnzzzz....he said to himself, " what a tiring day!" ZZZZzzzZZZZZ.... He went into the cottage and hopped into his bed, good night! he fell asleep drooling.
Next day morning, he found the bucket filled with water! and beside the bucket are sandwiches and juices and notes of encouragement. He smiled. Now, he not only wants to grow a apple tree, he wants to build a Good APPLE TREE.
And so he worked hard, taking great care of the tree. People came,People helped, people go.Days went by. In the end, the tree beared apples, red sweet juicy apples.
This MTV is my friend's apple tree.
If I am to grow mine, will you throw a spoon or a fork into my bucket?
Or pour some water in?
Or leave me a sandwich?
Or leave a note of encouragement?
If I am to grow my apple tree, I will give you an apple.
And please tell me truthfully...
if it's sweet.
