The Farmer and the Old Oak Tree



Once upon a time, in a small village with green fields, there lived a farmer named Ravi. Ravi worked very hard on his farm to take care of his family.

One summer, the village had a very bad drought. The sun was very hot, and the rivers dried up. Ravi’s crops started to die, and he was very worried about how he would feed his family. He couldn’t sleep because he was so scared.

Near Ravi’s farm, there was a big old oak tree. It had been there for a very long time. The tree was huge, with a thick trunk and large branches that gave shade to everyone. One evening, as Ravi sat under the tree feeling sad, he heard a quiet voice.

"Why are you so sad, dear farmer?" the voice asked. Ravi was surprised and looked around but saw no one. Then he realized the voice was coming from the oak tree.

"Who are you?" Ravi asked, his voice shaking.

"I am the spirit of this old oak tree," the voice said. "I have watched over this village for many years. me, what is making you so sad?"

Ravi told the tree about the drought, how his crops were dying, and how he was afraid for his family. The oak tree listened and then spoke.

"Don’t worry, Ravi. There is a way to save your farm. Every night, when the moon is high, dig a small hole at the base of my trunk and pour a bucket of water into it. Trust me, and soon you will see a miracle."

Ravi was unsure but decided to try. That night, under the light of the full moon, he did what the tree said. He did this for several nights, using the last of his water.

One morning, as Ravi looked at his fields, he saw something amazing. The ground around the oak tree was wet and little green plants were growing. Every day, these plants grew bigger and stronger, and soon his fields were full of healthy crops. The water from the oak tree had spread to his fields, saving his farm.

People from the village came to see Ravi’s green fields. Ravi told them about the old oak tree and its wisdom. The villagers were inspired by Ravi’s trust and hard work and started to take better care of their own land and each other.

Years later, the village was doing well again. The old oak tree stood as a reminder of hope and strength, showing everyone that sometimes help comes from places we don’t expect.

Ravi and his family lived happily ever after, always thankful to the wise old oak tree for teaching them about faith and taking care of nature.

Moral of the Story: Believing and not giving up, even when things are hard, can lead to wonderful surprises. Also, when we take care of nature, it can help take care of us.
