2. The Apple Tree
Once upon a time there was a huge Apple tree. A little boy used to come to play near the tree. He
would search for juicy apples. He would play alongside the tree and rest under the shade. The
tree was overjoyed after meeting this little bundle of joy, One day, the tree was surprised to sce
that boy approaching it with a sad face,
"Come on little boy! Play with me," the Tree asked the boy
"I am no longer a kid to play around tree like you," the boy scowled at the tree. "I need toys. I
need money to buy toys of various designs and sizes," the boy told the treo,
"Sorry my dear boy! I do not have money to give you. But you can pick all my apples and sell
them. That will give you adequate money to buy toys of your choices," replied the tree in
soothing voice.
The boy grabbed all the apples and left happily. He sold the apples and got money. He bought
loys of his choices.
Autumn season began but there was no sign of the boy
One morning, the tree sow its friend. That little boy had grown up into a big man,
"Come and play with me" the tree said,
"I cannoi play. I have family now We need a house for shelters. Can you help me?" the man
replied.
"Sorry! I do not have any house. But you can chop off my branches to build your house," the tree
told the man
The man cut all the branches of the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see his friend
smiling again
The man returned one evening to the apple tree,
"Come and play with me," the tree asked the man
"I am getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat," the man asked
the apple tree
"Use my trunk to build your boal," the tree told the man,
He cut off the trunk and made a bont out of it.
He went sailing and never showed up for a long time,
The man returned after many yeurs.
"Sorry my boy! But now I do not have anything to offer to you. I have nothing for you anymore.
No more apples.... No more branches... no more trunks for you to climb on the tree said with
a pain in its voice.
"No problem...I loo do not have any teeth to bite and I am too old to climb trees," the man
replied
"I just need a place to rest after all these days," the man replied
"Old tree roots are the best place to lean on. Come on and sit down with me and rest," the apple
free replied with a concern in its voice.
The old man sat down. The upple tree was glad and smiled with tears,
