Short Story 2. Two Letters From Earth

How many can see what I see? How many can feel what I feel? ---Earth

Dear Wind,

 

I see you again. I want to talk to you but my disability today won’t give me the chance to do it. I’m already mute and deaf. So I became contented watching you while swaying and dancing just like before. I smile when I see you doing that. You’re so beautiful when you dance. How I wish I could dance with you just like before. But I’m afraid you will just refuse and leave.

 

I want you to know that I just lost my voice but not my heart. I cannot hear but I can see. So I can feel you, and can see you every time you’re here.

 

I want to see you dancing forever. Your happiness is also my joy.  I will live with enough Wind. I breathe with you…because I am the Earth.

 

Yours,

Earth

Dear Rain,

 

I want to thank you for coming into my life. You made me feel valuable after being barren for some time. Now, I feel that more plants will grow on my bosom. I feel great.

 

I always see you dancing while singing. You are talented. I love to see you often with those moves and tones. They make me inspired.

 

But it seems that too much water will make me become muddy and slippery. Yesterday, a little girl walked on me and she slipped and fell. I pity her but I can’t do anything.

 

I hope that next time I know already how to absorb enough water to make people safer on my lap. I am still learning how to make everything balance in your presence.

Thank you so much.

Yours,

Earth

Two amazing letters. I like them both. Letters are more personal and strong. We can tell a complete story in a letter and can hold the paper forever if we needed. No weakness in the amazing chapter.

I love the ideas which you demonstrate here, of writing to the wind and the rain, which you have accomplished with success, good work here my friend.

Hmmm Conversation between Earth and Rain . I suggest if you would and if it looks good for you to rename the title. Just a suggestion

[Dhaye]

Haha! It's not a conversation between earth and rain. The earth send a letter to the both of them: wind and rain.

Thanks, Neil.
