Old Hag

hags/witches

I always remembered the story about Kobuka and his beautiful music. He spend his life in the forest and nature becomes full bloom when he starts to play the music. One day, he got lost due to a bad weather of heavy rain and strong wind to visit his friend. On his path, was a farmer’s wife gathers her three skinny cows into the barn. Farmer’s wife noticed poor individual was lost and asked if he wanted to stay in the shack until the rain and wind stop. Farmer’s wife insisted that he stay in warm and dry in the shack. Middle of the night, as darkness as can be. Music can be heard playing by Kobuka in the shack. A farmer’s wife one hand on an oil lantern and under her arm is a warm clean mohair blanket. The hand is a tray of hot oat meal and corn bread. Not much left for what they can grow in their farmer’ land. There wasn’t enough grass for the three cows and corn for the 5 chickens. Stuff like that considered a bad omen since the farmers brought the land. Kobuka has disappeared before the dawn. To the amazed, the crops grow to fullest and bad omen has disappeared. Farmers didn’t know who the poor individual was but heard of folklore about it. The rain did cause the crop to grow but his gentle smooth music.
