Short Story for Kids written by: Silvia Hernández Suástegui.
Ruth is a beautiful girl with red hair like sun rays. Her black eyes, big and beautiful, inherited from her maternal grandmother, sparkled with excitement seeing the sea. And she liked to walk along the beach to greet him and talk to him.
Every time she visited him, the sea waves, filled Ruth´s face of salty drops, getting the feeling of receiving thousand of kisses from him.
- “Hi Ruth! How are you?” – whispered the sea – “where have you been? I have really missed you”.
Ruth, who had the privilege of hearing his voice, answered:
- “I missed you too, that is why I came to visit you again. Do you know what, my dear sea? I could never miss the privilege of admiring you and hear the beautiful sound you emit”.
Ruth continued saying:
-”The most fascinating about you is when your arms, turned into waves, that are more similar to wings. Raise, trying to touch the sky. But, when broke in the sand, many white butterflies come out from your foam. Also the dance of your waves, looks like the drums are sounding to remember your power. Oh! but what I most adore from you are the shells ringing when you go back to form a new wave; ringing with the sand, emitting the most beautiful and perfect melody that I have ever listened in any music instrument. That is the reason why I love you so much, my dear sea. And I will come every day to visit you and to play with you”.
Ruth said good bye to the sea every day, after playing with him, and promising to visit him again the day after.
