    "Tendas"

    When we
    entered the dark cave,
    they hid among the shadows and rocks,
    disappearing from sight
    when we turned
    from the corners
    of our eyes.
    The shadows
    quivered
    but they hid
    and not a
    peep was heard.
    We reached out
    with a open hand
    and one of them
    came out,
    a small green creature.
    He whispered "Come."
    Awkwardly,
    one by one,
    they gathered,
    big green water drops.
    only 2 stood out,
    one was BLATANTLY outgoing,
    the other was horned.
    The green
    horned one
    came out
    with the blushs.
    His "silent" words
    were brave,
    but they were veiled
    of shyness...
    The BLATANT one
    walked up to us
    and he proclaimed:
    "We need a book,
    a book that would open
    this village to anyone."
    "It speaks of
    the antidote
    our village
    deseperately needs."
    "Our bravery is in it."

    "Go find that that BIG RED BOOK!"


    We nodded and headed our way,
    waving goodbyes,
    and the shy little ones said:
    "Hey, Hello, Good-bye."
    And we left in search,
    Day after day,
    tiredness hanging
    over our heads,
    until...
    That day,
    the ONETT library,
    small and rare,
    We saw it inside.
    The holy red
    BOOK.
    We found it!
    In a unused bookshelf
    hiding, until
    we plucked it out
    and carried it.
    On the way back,
    And we had to walk
    through MUD, SAND,
    SOIL and even
    VOMIT,
    Just to take it to
    our shy friends,
    so they can talk without FEAR...
    And when it opened onto them,
    a grand revival began,
    history was beginning to be written again,
    culture began to grow,
    and life flourished once again.
    Words were spoken,
    and "Thanks"
    echoed from
    the group.
    Overcoming Shyness can do a lot of things.
