SEARCHING FOR THE LOST
WELL
A long, long time ago there was a beautiful meadow and a small stream was
crossing it. In the middle of this meadow there was a small waterhole. One
peasant settled here and built a farm.
One summer a terrible drought came to the country. Streams and rivers were
getting drier and drier, crops were wasting away, the land was on the brink of
disaster. The only thing unaffected by the drought was the small waterhole.
Local peasants started to came here to take some water and the farmer
decided to build a well, so that other people would have to pay him for the
water. One day a very old and tired wanderer was coming by . Thirsty man
approached the well and was just about to drink when the farmer came and
told him to pay. The old man was begging him, but in vain. Greedy farmer
forced him to go and freed his angry dogs. The old man fled , stumbling over
the tree roots, chased by the farmer’s loud laughter . The man stopped, turned
away and reached out his hand in the direction of the valley. Suddenly
something strange happened. Water in the well rose quickly and got inside. A
puddle was getting bigger and bigger, flooding the field. The water table grew
quickly and the farmer stood and laughed. His laughter became louder and
more frightful. He couldn’t move or stop laughting. He kept on laughting even
when water reached his neck. When he got completely under water the old
man could hear his laughter. His farm got under water too. On the site of the
farm now there is a big lake which is called “Smieszek” .
How it started…
It was our third attempt to set off to search
for the lost well…
Do
Unfortunately- not this one!
Maybe this one?…- but it’s forbidden to
go there
Still searching…
Where is the lost well?
We found mushrooms in the tree trunk and strangely
familiar penguins.
We didn’t find the well but we came back
happy and impressed!
Maybe we will hear the farmer’s laughter some day?
