Four Seasons Story

4 Seasons Story

Once upon a time there was a large castle in a kingdom far far away. It was the home of a man called The Year. He lived there with his 4 children(the 4 Seasons), and his 12 grandchildren (the 12 Months). They all lived happily together!

Every evening they all sat by the fireplace and told stories about their everyday lives. They loved those evenings very much!

One of those evenings, though, they had a visitor. It was a famous film maker who wanted to make a film about the best Season of all. So, the Year had to choose which of his children was the best! What a difficult decision!He couldn’t make it, because he loved them all equally!

So he asked the 5 Sprites (the guards of the castle) to make the choice for him!

The 5 Sprites asked the 4 seasons to present themselves with the help of their months.

Withtheir presentation they could convince the sprites to choose and vote for the best Season of all! The 4 Seasons had 24 hours to prepare! The presentations were to start the next evening‌

The first season was Spring. It was a girl. She wanted to show how everything changed when this season came to the world. Spring told 5 Sprites that the Earth started to wake up, birds started to sing and all the flowers were blooming. Moreover, the Sun was shining and all the plants were growing.

The animals, smaller and bigger ones, knew that it was time to build nests and new homes, to have a family and prepared for newborn babies. When Spring ruled the world was full of colours: yellow, green, orange, blue and pink. The Father Year asked Spring if the season was important or not for animals and plants in the world. Spring answered that it was the beginning of everything, without this season there would be no new life, no food, no babies, no plants, no fruit. The world would be like a desert full of empty spaces, without the sun, rain, rainbow and happiness. Spring also presented all the wonders that people could see in the season and 5 Sprites were amused by the what Spring told them.

Spring was glad that Sprites admired her achievements. Even her green long dress and a yellowish hat full of flowers were glowing stronger than usual. And after Spring her brother Summer started continue ‌

Summer said that she was delight that she has the opportunity to present her qualities and beauty. She has more power to enhance everybody. Summer means time for holidays. Anyone can travel at sea, at mountain. The weather is good for many trips with friends. The sunshine warm the earth , all the creatures (animals, insects, birds) are happy and smile. All the plants grows, are more fruits and vegetables. We can eat more vitamins and we can take care for our health. Kids can play more games in the forest, in the gardens. Flowers, butterflies, rainbows, colors, ... Joy and happiness for everybody!

After Summer it was the turn of Fall, a very handsome man who was feeling really awkward.

Fall loves the other three seasons and has been always kind with the other three seasons as they are a team but he found the courage to talk about himself.Fall is the era of new starts...kids go to school, families return to their everyday life and routine after holidays!

Also Fall has the best colours...every famous painter has been inspired from its colours!Red, yellow, orange and brown..its beautiful to see nature changing colours through the leaves of the trees!At the end of his speech, Fall felt the need to say that everyone is special and each season is unique!

And the turn of winter came. She was a beautiful girl dressed in a white dress that left behind her a lot of snow stars. She was wearing an ice crown with shining stars. She brought the cold, but also many joy. The snowmen who came with she, told them those present and the 5 Spirites about the children's games on sleighing: with the sled and with the skis. They told about the beauties of winter. Winter puts ice on the water and draw snow flowers on the windows. Now arrives Santa Claus with gifts for everyone. Winter brings the muchanticipated vacation. People will adorn the Christmas tree and sing carols.

Everyone admitted that winter is a wonderful season.

It makes everything more difficult. Because each season has own beauty and makes our life nice in different style, sense and emotions. The four seasons effect of our life are equal.5 spirites aren’t able to decide, but the year is happier. But there is another question how they can choose the best season?

The film maker awaits the sprites’ answer. The first sprite chooses spring as the best season. The second one chooses summer instead. The third one believes autumn should be the protagonist of the film and the fourth sprite names winter the best season of all. The fifth sprite is in a very difficult positon. He cannot decide. He loves all the seasons the same and believes that the year is so beautiful because of them!

Suddenly the year, their father decides to speak…

“I am so happy that God gave me such good children. I wouldn’t change anything in each and every one of you! I cannot decide which season is the best because there isn’t a best season.

The only thing there is, is my loving family and my very special children! I love you all!”

They all hugged and cried with joy. Who wanted to play a part in a film after all?

THE END…
