Michael ’ s Dream
Cemre İLHAN
Once upon a time there were two brothers who lived in one of the biggest kingdoms in the world . One of the brothers , Daniel was very rich . He was so rich that his wealth was heard from other kingdoms in the world . The other brother , Michael was so poor that he did not even have a thing to feed his stomach . That ’ s why he was working as a farmer to take some bread or anything that feeds his stomach . His brother Daniel was very arrogant and he always belittled him . One day Michael was working in the field and then suddenly he fell asleep under the tree . While he was sleeping Daniel came and poked him with his foot and said ;
-No food here unless you work , get up now - Daniel said without paying attention ;
-Brother , you know , I had a dream . I was very rich , I had vineyards , gardens , mansions . I wish I could see a little more .
And Daniel said ; -You will only see them in your dreams . His brother gave the following impressive answer loudly after him ;
-I think we are both in a dream , my dream has ended when I opened my eyes , yours will end when you close your eyes !
Eight years later , king of the kingdom saw Michael ’ s extraordinary success in farming and he declared him farmer who has the highest rank and he gave him a mansion with a big garden .
