The Dimming Forest🦁

     

   With the wracking weight of my childish ego after leaving that strange house, I rushed with my fear of lonesome. I went north to no where I didn't expect they can guess. Nearly I cracked my head when bumping into a hazard old man.
   -"I'm sorry are you okay sir"
   He acted as he didn't notice my existence at all.
   No more word i left with a no-good suspicion about what inside his eyes. At that time I'm bound that there was something marvelous drawn on me.
   Far far away i spotted at a darkest ghastly scenery in this tiny town, a place where no one dare to approached, but as ordinary life's cycle, they all gossip about it to ban and weaken their children's curiousness named The Ghost Forest or commonly The Dimming Forest (Somehow the dense means to them as a reference of a illegal religion belonging to a criminal organization). By no hesitation i proceeded straight to "the hell" who knew i may explore something fantastic what'll make Popo and Peony proud of!
   On a unending "rugged" path leading to the evil destination, around me was a chain of bright-color houses adorned with its owner's heart-melted conversations and lovely stories:
   -"Daddy and Mommy let's play hide and seek with me".
   -"Mama your cake is so so so beautiful''.
   -"Thanks darling, come to hug your lovely Dad".
    That day i weren't hungry because I had two pancakes in my stomach, but something hit me right at my blank soul. Ignoring it i made my way in progress, I dare say that this place would be perfect with joys if the cursed forest wasn't there. I continued my trail with a little worrying, I went.
   The road introducing to the Dimming forest was too muddy that virtually ate my left shoe, i dumped them and went on bare foot. Upon me was a cloud-dense sky which i expected it's gonna be heavy rained. Shocking with the unrealistic emergency of the famous lush realm: a shower of sunshine ray escaped from the thick grey cloud, one side of the forest boundary reflected in my sore eyes (due to dust) an arcane scene.
    A curve line of medium- size pines flinched slowly and swallowed every single dim beams shone through its private area. From its lanky branches are a intense numbers of slender dark-green ivy creeped and wrapped around the great body. Whilst a ghostly humid fog storm which tightly folded all the pines' vitality was waving steadily crossing the blank spaces between those lonely trees.
    Thunder and lighting. Appearing. Glowing. Rumbling. Groaning. Wailing. Roaring. Growling. Howling. Vanishing. Fire Dragonflies would capture the entire vast airspace with its transparent winds  momentarily swooped down and floated crowdedly on the ground. In the contract, A stampede of wild birds snarled frightenedly and rocketed straightaway resulted in those pine and others' leaves wrenching sound: rustling, fluttering, and screaming.
    A given drop. Two and three more. It was heavier and colder.
    Entering the forest's roof changes my life forever.
    To be fair it's not scary that much, but with its crying sound that is what make its brand. a combat of altercative winds crashed at each fragile leaves let it alone with its fate: if it's robust enough, bears the pain, strengthens the root but ease other fractions; in the contract, some leaves were too ego that they ignored the Death was coming and taking their life it's quiet hard for those to calm down and bend their stoned bodies as rye.
    Luckily, those great pines had turned into umbrellas shielding my little body from the frozen rain and its hungry blows. With a close view, under my bare foot there were like a relic of a fabulous kingdom with its gold, diamonds, and rubies had been left due to an escape's the king and queen which they were forced under the sharp knife of the pirates; oh pardon me! i were in a daydream at that time they were just daisies, multi-colored ones to more exact as a spot definition of purity and innocence, In the meantime, i must declare that this mist place doesn't satisfy your flora's interesting mood, save for daisies, only orchids clung over eucalyptus whose tolerant and gentile spirits, on the grassland agaricus, straw, king trumpet and penny bun the fungi set their life; although you first thought they (flora and fungi) must feel too tedious because of no mobile friends, ants and other insects (mostly caterpillars) warmed their "green" fellows' "heart" all the time, and inpressively in winter they were used to warming the vegetation by letting some leaves on their roots, nice nice pals!
    Pray for my hearing problem, is it a bark?
    Hope not! For the shake of a itsy-bitsy boy at age five for fighting against a thirsted-blood beast.
    I'd keen on my route to farther distance. Following a trail is not a bad idea, wasn't it! A song, yes a song would cheer this exhausting jungle up.
  Hold me close and hold me fast.
  The magical spell you cast.
  This is "lavie en rose".
  When you kiss me, heaven signs.
  And i though i close my eyes.
  I see "lavie en rose"
  (Peony, Popo and me always sang it when something made us upset, and now we're still doing it lala)

" Woof Woof Wooooooooooooooof" 
     Where is that bursting sound from? oh silly yeah look at the blog intro "some silly stories", of course it was a dog barking sound, too be exact it belonged to Arthur the one-eye dog ( and some scar on his head and body, it reminds me a brave story of himself causing this sad features, i promise i will upload soon)
      With a click of my eyes, the Border Terrier Dog greeted me with my mud shoes and:
     -" Oh well done Arthur"- he was rotating around me while his teeny-weeny tail wagged up and down hilariously/
     -" Woof woof woof"- he said lovely, but what did he say, just you and who writes this blog don't know, crazily i can apprehend it maybe because i had read a book call " how to be cute enough to understand animal's language". I'm gonna translate our amicable conversation for you readers (note: i didn't bark)
     -" Why you came after me, and Richard i thought he must follow me catching his sight through the slide door".
     -" haf waf vau vau wowwwwwwwwwwwwwww"
      (Richard called me to go after you when he saw an odd badass "visited" your house)
    - "That why Popo sent me out"   
    - " Baffff auh auh guff vou hau au aoo wfffff woooffffff"
      (Now quickly Elias go to a policeman and alert him)
    -" Guide me out please"
    -"Hov Hov"
     (Yes)
 At the meantime i again felt something casted on though this was a realistic one. 
   A ring on my head from no where for guesting. I toke a caution observation over it, how peculiar it was, how forgive-me-not blue and pure as moonlight mixed with the sparkle golden dust of sunshine reflected by a narrow stream of silky gold deepened in it. 
    Honor and Glow were i bathing into a nature's gift which honestly opened a far far beyond dreamy door for my little self, i wish i had appreciated "that" extraordinary time much more than i did. 
    Thanks to my slow wandering movement before, we didn't far away from the forest's gate a long distance.
    Say farewell to a beautiful dense of pines, a gorgeous mat of flowers and fauna. Thanks for giving me a great adventure. "Hope i'll get a chance to visit you again, remember me, promise"
  When you press me to your heart
  I'm in a world apart
  A world where roses bloom
  And when you speak, angels sing from above
  Everyday words seem to turn into love songs
  Give your heart and soul to me
  And life will always be
  "La vie en rose"
  "Aw aw baw vogh gong gong bho bho" 
  ( Alarming! Something moved behind the bushes)
  "Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"
  -"W........."- I picked him up before he could bark another word.
  RUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
  Never thought that mini-me was escaping in that rapid pace. Pitifully, it was only a dog and a lion played the proofers for me if i enlisted in a Record Breaking Score at that disastrous time.
  RUN FOR LIFE. RUN FOR LIFE. RUN FOR LIFE.
  (The essential point must be repeated thrice)
  -"It has four legs so that it run extremely faster than us Arthur"
  -" Tyap tyap hammm hauuuuu hammm" 
  (I have four legs too)
  -"Shorter and plumier"
  - "voff voff woof wuff"
  (That makes me cool)
  -"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
  My two leg rose apart from the ground floor when my booty upped to the air as its vast as ocean and deep as hole nearly got it.
  KEEP RUNNING AND AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
  That horrible and ridiculous events replayed again and again as a video game where i was a funny boy who joked with a big lion. 
  Hide behind a tall pine while the great beast sought me over every corners. Thankfully, i weren't childish at that dangerous time and counted 5;10;15;20;......95;100 "I about to seek". Oh something wrong, that was a fixed role for that creature.
  Heartbeat rocked in and out its cells. Hope my heart wasn't pulled out at the moment.
  Take a glance. Not in the left. Switched. Not in the right too. 
  Bingo, as you're guessing.
  -"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
  Cycled around the tree. Ridiculously, an idea burst out my mind BARGAIN (as Doctor Strange and Dormammu did)
"Hmm Hmmm"- I coughed (i saw adults usually do it when they get to an important speech)
  -"Meowwwww Meowwwwwwwww"- It was from Arthur, he tried to imitate the big cat's roar, and it failed completely.
  (Stop)
  -"STOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP, let converse as two grown-up"
  -"Grauuuu Grauuuuu Grouuuuuu Grou" 
  (I were intensely hungry)
  -"Don't let a normal manner fools your posh veins, dear the Wild's King"
  -"Gruuuu" (Quick)
  -"Raw fresh are never tasty, a little bit of salt, a spoon of sugar( if you have a sweet tooth), a haft coffee-spoon of pepper are crucially suitable for your five star restaurant quality- dishes."
  -"Greuuuu Grauuuuuu Grrrrrrrrrr" 
  (I've listened you got the point)
  "There was no seasoning for your meals sir. So i've an idea that we dance and sing together, for my sweats drain out my skin, some said sweat taste salty. In addition, baby skin was sweet and soft so no concerns for the sugar. And no need for pepper because it'll surely ruin everything."
  -"Why not only you dance and sing"
  -"Lions are experts at musical stuff"
  -"Griwnnnnn grawwww Grrrrrr" (A King don't do that"
  -"It's fun or you can't dance or sing"
  -"Grawnnn Grauuu Grrrrr" (Probably i can"
  -"Along with me"
  -"Growwwwwwn" (It's a big fat NO from me)
  -"Please take a sit and watch us sir"- I put Arthur off the ground.
  -"Grinnnnnwnwnwwnn Girrwsssssswwwwwwwwrrr" (I love songs)
Baby shark doo doo doo doo doo doo
Baby shark doo doo doo doo doo doo
Baby shark doo doo doo doo doo doo
Baby shark!
  -"Grrrrr Gron't" (I'm a lion, i hate sharks)
From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
Some say, "Eat or be eaten"
Some say, "Live and let live"
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give
( We featured Tazan's figure)
  -"Grrrrrrrrrrrreearrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" (fit my animal spirit)
Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna matata! Ain't no passing craze!
It means no worries, for the rest of your days...
It's our problem-free philosophy...
Hakuna matata!
  -"Graaaaaaazzzzzzzzingggggggggg" "Amazing, another one"
Oh mta ka mama wam.
(Oh, my mother's child)
Oh mfo wethu.
(Oh, my dear brother)
Ndi ya ku khumbula mna.
(I miss you)
La la, la la.
Mostswalle waka.
( My dear friend)
Ngwana mme.
(My mother's child)
Ndiyani khumbula.
(I miss you)
La la kahle.
La la kahle.
(Farewell)
  For a predominant moment, the lion's eyes seem to hold its tear and force its muscle not to loose.
  -"Gruuuuuu Grrrrrrrr" (Salty)
  -"You're in tear, they contain salt elements too"
  -"Grou" (You)
  -"What i'm not salty enough yet, more songs more delicious"
  -"Grrrrr Grrrrrrrrrr" (Oh dear, i afraid i eat you straightaway)
  -"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Gruuuu Grooooooooooooooooooo Graaaaaaaaaaaaa" (I freaking fear the high-pressure blood disorder when absorbing a reductant volume of salt)
  -" NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"- This was a NO for bilateral memorable movements: the lion's jumping and Arthur's defend.
   The honor dog escaped from my arms and crushed toward the animal's silly face resulted in the Big One found shelter its hurting eyes with its trembling due to bitterness hands.
  -" Wufffffff Woofff Auuuuuu" ( Let's fight Big Booty)
  -" Grruuu Grrrrrrrr" (How dare you)
  -" Woooooooooof Hooooow Huuufff" (I'm Arthur the bravest dog)
  -" Grrr Grrrr Grrrrrrrrrr" (I'm the wild's King the King)
  -" Never, you was caught and forced playing for mankind pleasures"
  -" Grrruuuen't" (Not true)
  -" Naked truth"
  -" Groooooooooooooo Gr Grrrr Grauuuuuuuuu Grrrrrrr Grrrrrrrrr" (I'm the Great One rules the roost of every land miles, I'm the King)
  -" Your black and blue marks on your back, you were bit severely"
  -" Woooof Wiiif" (I feel sorry for you)
  -" Gr" (They did)- The scary animal sat down quiveredly* with its dark experiences.
I and Arthur gave him a comfort embrace, he did back.
  Hold me close and hold me fast.
  The magical spell you cast.
  This is "lavie en rose".
  When you kiss me, heaven signs.
  And i though i close my eyes.
  I see "lavie en rose"
  -" Grrr Grrrr Grankkk" (I feel better now thanks)
  -"You're welcome, could you talk my your adventure? How did you escape the zoo?"
  -" Grrrr Grrr Grrr Grraa Grruu Grrr Grr GGrrrrrrr Grrrrr Grrruuuu Graaa" (A girl helped and guided me to this woodland but after that she was gone into the darkness"
  -"Mystery"
  -"Wooof" (yes)
  -"Elias, Elias, Elias"- A burst of sound from the south.
  -" Oh Popo and Peony, they're gentile and tolerant, i bet you a thousand pounds they'll help you too"
  -"Grrrr Grrrr Gooo" (There are other footsteps' sound)
  -" You'd better go now"
  -"Wooooo Wooooo" (Go Go)
  -" Gran't" ( I'll be hungry, in this cursed place there is no food or water at all)
  -" Woooof Wuuuuf Auuu Gauuu Hooooo" (We'll bring you meats, cakes and whatever you want)
  -"Grrrr Grrrrr Grrrrrrrrrrrice" (You're so nice to me, but it's simply impossible)
  -"Please go, being a slave is definitely much worse"
  But it was too late.
  Electric fluorescent lamp dappled at us from every directions.
  -"We found the child sir, and the animal too"- said one of three policemen.
  Popo and Peony expressed with a threatened face, tear streamed down their chin while a familiar stranger tapped their shoulders. Richard stood on Popo's head as he always do it with me smiled and tickled in his eyes.
  Two policemen rose their guns on targeted upon the poor lion. 
  -"You can't catch him"- I said while stretched my arm as far as possible almost broke my bones.
  -"Wooof Wooof" (Don't catch him)
  Their face felt. A long hesitate invaded the spell.
  -" I said DON'T CATCH HIM. He didn't hurt us, but you see he was suffered the illegal treatment from the zoo, the big disgusting scar on his back is the robust evidence ."
  Richard, Popo and Peony broke the silence, and come to my side.
  -"We don't let you track him down again" (together we declared)
  -"Gentlemen, as what's outlined to us, the lion's breakout has a proper motive: he was thrashed. According to the national law, this action is illegitimate, and the animal collection must be sued and punished."- The stranger said- "Resulted in the ones who need trapped down were the zoo's head staffs and their certain fellow, in addition the lion must be sent to its wild world."
  -" And other animal in that menagerie too, we are keen on digging all its against law activities"- said the police-" We thought the creature's gonna live in another one until we can give him back to home, it won't take long time."
  -"You're in your home soon mate"
  -"Wooof Woooooooooooooooof auuuuu Houuuuuu" (Great Great)
  -"Grrr grr Gruuuu Gooooo" (Hope so, thanks you all so much)
  -" Mr. Police, please could you give me his new address i want to visit and sing for him. And where he'll reside in his wild location too"
  -" Nice young man, of course"
  -" Grenk Grreagrias" (Thanks Elias)
  -" Auuuu Houuuu" (I come too)
  -" Grrr Grrr Gouu Grrruuu Grrr Grrrrr Grargrur" (Yes you too i'll hate you if you don't come Arthur you're such the most courage dog)
  -" Be careful and look after yourself, don't you?"
  -"Grrrr Grr" (I do)
  -" Don't let anyone hurt him please"- I stared at the policemen.
  -" Woof WOoof" (Promise)
  -" Promise"- they said.
  We stepped out the realm in sync the initial shine illuminated on us: warmed and melted our broken heart.
  -" Rainbow"- Peony said.
  -"Come rain come sunshine"- said the stranger.
  -" Wooooooooooo AUUUUU" (Come homeeeee)
  -" Grrye Gryee Grrrrr" (Good bye, thanks for your help. You sing lovely Elias and you too Arthur)
  -" See you soon"
  The policemen and lion disappeared on their route.
  -"Why you forced me out when this stranger isn't a badass after all"
  -"Just a long tale, tell you later, it was relevant to a heroic knight i am"
  -" Why are you in there?"
  -" It was a great story about an explorer i am, tell you later"
  -" fair enough"
  -"Houuuu Wooooo" (And a fearless dog too)
  -" Meoooow Meowww" (Don't forget my bit)
  -" Yes Richard the naughty cat"
  Later that night we all exchanged our own folks (save for the stranger who got home after dinner time)
  In a following week since that special day, i visit my old friend the lion at next town's zoological garden (We booked three train tickets for this travel oh Richard and Arthur came too, and specifically it'd been the first time i were on a train).
  Three months later, on the headline, the lion settled to Indian tropical forest. Nice trip then.
  -"Good bye mate, i can't sing to you anymore"
  -" Griisssss Grrrr" (I absolutely miss you)
  -" There is a sunglass, because i heard that your new dwell is too hot and wet, it'll protect your eyes and make you look cooler".
  -" Grrrr Grrrr Grooggg" (There is a dog made by my bushy hair it reminds you about me and Arthur."
  -" Thanks, you want hear a song"
  -"Greasssss Grr" (Please)
Hold me close and hold me fast.
