rejection

(continued from "sign", May the 27th, 2007)

Maybee the white rabbit has eaten too many carrots? He can't eat anymore, nor can his friends: The bluebird won't eat carrots. Porcu uses to eat quite a lot carrots, but he visits his new friend, Porcupi. The grassman and his girlfriend had eaten carrot-cake, carrot-bread, carrot-salats and fresh carrots, and now they won't have anymore. He had even asked the wasp. "No-one here want to eat anymore carrots, everybody rejects, too bad" he thinks.

Then he see the giraffe, the refugee from Africa. "Now he must help," the white rabbit thinks. "You upthere - here are some carrots" he said.

"No thanks," says the giraffe, "I don't eat carrots." "Aren't my carrots good enough?", the rabbit said. "I'm sure they are, but I only eat leaves from tall trees," the giraffe explains.

"Ah, that's why you have your long neck! I thought, you came here to steal my carrots," the white rabbit says, a bit ashamed. He would ask why he came here from Africa, but the giraffe was already gone. The giraffe walked quickly because of his long legs, and the white rabbit couldn't even walk with his big stomach. "One day I'll ask him, what he will do at our place," was the last, he thought, before he felt asleep.

sign

(continued from "neighbour" May the 6th, 2007)
One sunny afternoon the white rabbit putted all his carrots in a pile. Soon he would get some new ones, therefore he would have a little "carrot party".

The bluebird saw the signs, he had made. "Why may animals with long necks not eat your carrots?" she asked. "Because – because - - all the carrots can be in their necks," the rabbit said.

The bluebird said, that was rubbish. "Why may the giraffe not eat your carrots?" she said directly. "That giraffe shall not come here from Africa and eat my carrots!" the rabbit shouted.

The bluebird got sad. "The giraffe have run away from home, because he was hunted by lions, and because his family mobbed him because of his crazy legs," she said.

The white rabbit didn't say anything. He looked at his signs, thoughtful. "But why does he come here," he said so quietly, that nobody heard him.

neighbor

The very first time, the giraffe came to The Land of the Grassman, the first one he met, was a bluebird. "Hey, I'm your new neighbor," the giraffe said. The bluebird would like to know, where he came from. He said, he came from Africa - far, far away. "Why do you come here?", he asked.

The giraffe said, that he ran away from home, because there were dangerous lions there, and because his own family mobbed him because of his crazy, crooked legs. Now he would start a new life here.

"A family ought to support eachother. I feel sorry for you, that yours was so mean against you. Would you like to get a new family here?", the bluebird asked. "Oh yes, but are there many giraffes here?" he asked. The bluebird said: "No, but you can get us, the grassman and his friends, as your family."

"Thankyou very much, you're are so kind to me, " the giraffe said a bit more happy.

The bluebird only wished, that he would be welcome among all the other friends. He wasn't, but it's just another story.

wind

It's autumn, and the wind-cloud has become strong and has blown the porcupine around. He cryes for help, and luckily his friend, the white rabbit, hears him. He calls for the giraffe, who comes very fast.

"Go away from my friends," the giraffe says. "We two are stronger than that cloud", the white rabbit says and hides himself between the giraffe's long legs.

speed

Sometimes sunflowers are growing very fast.
