A talking wind “How ridiculous!” she thought, “But what if it is true What if it can achieve my wishes and help my people ” Taba stood up and spoke, “Oh, kind and gentle wind of charity, I hope you are real. I hope you are not just in my imagination. Here is my wish. I wish for crops to feed my people. And I wish for warm rains to help the crops to grow and to bring water to the villages.” The wind agreed and blew away.
The morning passed, and nothing changed. Taba began to wonder if it was just a dream. But in the early afternoon, the dust began to stir, and the sky darkened. Within an hour, seeds rained from the sky. They fell throughout the country, and the the gentle wind covered them with a thin layer of dirt. Taba could not believe her eyes. Who ever heard of such a thing as raining seeds But it was really happening, and everyone was talking about it.
As if by magic, within three weeks, crops were growing everywhere. There were peas and corn. There were sweet strawberries and lovely plums. There was wheat to make flour for bread. There were carrots, peppers, beans and lettuce. Fruits and vegetables filled everyone’s baskets. Smiles returned to the villagers’ faces.
