The Stone that Burps

There is a stone that burps.

The burping stone burps everytime a person passes by.

And it burps in a bad manner.

Before thrown to the river,

she stays in a garden besides a kindergarten.

When the children are out to play, she burps and scare them.

That is why the parents send someone to throw it to the river.

Inside the water, it don't stop burping.

It burps whenever a fish passes by.

Until one day, Bob the fish got fed up and flap the stone out of water with his tail.

And there, besides the river it settle.

There was no fish and person passes it.

So it was mute just like other stones around it.

It used to wish for being a normal stone.

So it doesn't scare the children and doesn't get on the fish's nerve.

But now, it feels lonely and doesn't feel special.

One day, two day, one week, one month, one year have passed

and the stone have not burp for one year!

But one year in silence worthed the wisdom it got.

It have promised itself to burp slowly and in a good manner.

So it won't scare the children and won't get on the fish's nerve.

A sunny day then came with a sunny fate for the stone.

That day, a scientist come to the river looking for some stones for his experiment.

He passed the burping stone.

And for the first time after one year, the stone burps beautifully, slowly and with manner.

The scientist was shocked, because he didn't expect a burping stone to be there besides the river.

It needs effort to find the burping stone because it was mingled with all other common stone.

The scientist managed to find the burping stone and brought it home.

After doing some experiments, the scientist place her on his house gate as a notifier if someone passes his house gate.

And the burping stone was happy for being useful.

She never forget to burp nicely and beautifully!
