2. The year was 1012 when I was walking in the woods .
I was contemplating what the design of my coat of arms should be,
when suddenly, I came upon a small bird, who seemed helpless.I
heard its sad chirping, as if he were longing for his family.
Carefully, I picked it up and placed it in my carrying
satchel.
3. I tried looking for its family
I felt loyal to the little bird, as I believed it to be my destiny
to find its family.As I continued to walk on, suddenly I heard the
roaring of water ahead.It was a raging river, I had no choice, but
to cross.
4. It was treacherous
Carefully, I placed one foot in front of the other, calculating
every step.The water rushed past, I almost lost my footing, but I
was able to recover.The little bird and I made it safely to the
shore.Our trip continued.
5. Our Journey Continues
Loud crashing noises broke the peaceful silence.The noise came
closer and closer. What could it be?
Oh no! A bear.
6. I followed my instincts.
Little bird and I dashed through the woods, my heart was beating
wildly as I could hear the bear running close behind.Without
thinking I picked up a large rock, and quicklythrewitat the
lumbering bear!He suddenly stopped, turned around and began to
retreat.Amazed at my own good fortune, I continued to run with the
little bird, still in my satchel.
7. Peace at Last
The sound of raging water turned intoa relaxing rhythm of water,
the woods melted into a meadow with a welcoming castle on the
waters bank.
8. It felt like home.
I heard the sound of birds chirping.Peace rushed over me.I knew I
could release the little bird now, and he would be safe.
We overcame the raging river, and the ferocious bear.I had
protected the little bird, with loyalty and strength.We had a bond
that could never be broken.
9. My Coat of Arms
I now knew what belonged on my coat of arms:
Blue for loyalty & strength
White for peace
A Wavy line for water
A Bear for protection
10. The castle on the hill
As I approached the castle the great door opened.It seemed that the
castle was beckoning to me, and so I entered.The busy servants
welcomed me as their king. To this day I reside with my family,
with the mighty coat of arms above the entryway. Ill always
remember the little black bird who began it all, so long
ago.
