The Granny In The Mushroom
Mushroom of different types
Under an umbrella hypes.
Stems, thin or thick
Haunted by pin or stick.
Rolls of trolls played
On or over our heads gayed.
On top of it all
Mushrooms attract and stall.
Mushrooms can be found anywhere. Have you heard of the granny in the mushroom?...
Long time ago, a grandmother for homeless kids was once a young, attractive girl. So many suitors lined up when her parents were still alive. She is the only daughter of the thirteen children in the family and youngest of the siblings. All of her brothers didn't want any man to visit her in their big house. The house is really big and probably five families of thirteen children can live there.
As a sister, she followed all the instructions of her older brothers. Much so, she listened to everybody specially to her parents. Sad to say, her parents died together in a distant forest, they were horticulturists.
Almost all of the girl's twelve brothers are so strict to her. And no suitor was ever able to enter their big house. Courting is not a bad thing for any man, only that different houses have different rules inside, as built.
One day, while all of the girl's brothers were out, a young man knocked at the girl's house door. The girl peeked at the small hole of the front door and saw her male friend. She opened the door and invited him inside the house. They played cards on the table and sang together with soft music. One of the twelve brothers arrived home from work so early. The girl and her friend were scolded. The young man was driven out of the house. The girl felt embarrassed and hurriedly went to her bedroom. She cried. Her brother reported everything to her other eleven brothers. From that day on, she was never allowed to invite anybody inside their big house. The brothers want to keep the house clean all the time.
One day after a month passed, an old lady knocked at the front door of the big house. She heard someone knocking, but she was scared of opening the door. The old lady was shaking outside, asking for a glass of water. The girl peeked at the door's small hole to see the ailing female voice. The old lady looks tired and hungry. She decided to open the door without letting the old lady enter the house. But the girl approached the haggard lady and offered her food and water.
The old lady said, "You are so kind. I had a daughter before who looks as beautiful as you, but she died sometime ago. "
Curious about what she heard, she asked the old lady where she came from and how her daughter died. The old lady sat on a bedrock not too far from the house's front door and told the story of her daughter to the girl.
Five of the girl's brothers arrived and saw her talking to a stranger. She was grabbed by the arm and was dragged inside the house. The old lady was shocked. She, too, was pushed and driven away. The old lady was bleeding when she walked away... after hitting a sharp hard bark portion of a tree.
The very tidy big house where all the twelve brothers used to live turned squalid when their lone sister ran away.
Of all places on earth, the girl and the once bruised-old lady met again... this time, in a forest.
The old lady remembers the beautiful young lady's kindness who once fed her. She offered her house to the young lady -- a very small house with no door. It is a mushroom.
During daytime, the mushroom always appears as a real mushroom and small to everybody. At night time, it turns into a huge house and opens with an invisible door where everybody can stay, eat and enjoy life. Everything that you would need are all inside the mushroom at night. Everybody can be happy. There's always happiness and peace inside the mushroom.
The time permitted when the old lady as resident and owner of the magic mushroom has to end. She died of old age, but bestowed everything she owns to the beautiful and kind young lady.
The time came too when the young lady turned into a granny, without being courted or loved by any man. The Granny still lives inside the magic mushroom.
Check your garden, she must be there somewhere!
