Mute Singerhttp://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201203/201203241039079211692.mp3Early one morning I saw the Mute Singer washing himself at the river. He smiled and touched the ground with his hand, meaning that I should sit down. Then, he pointed his finger straight up, to tell me that he had a surprise for me.
Suddenly, he put his hand into the water and rubbed two of his fingers together, making a strange sound, exactly like the sound of a croaking frog. He did it many times, then he lightly hit the top of the water, sending little ripples of waves across the water to the other side.
Suddenly, everything around us seemed to be moving. I could not believe that it was real. Thousands of frogs came racing toward us, jumping, and swimming, under the water and on top of the water. I began to shake with excitement.
The frogs crowded around us, I could see their heads and eyes showing above the top of the water.
The Mute Singer found some snails and cut them into small pieces and began to feed the frogs. They came closer and closer, and the Mute Singer started to play his guiter. As he did so, the frogs became quiet and listened. And then they,
too, started to sing. Young frogs, old frogs, every one of them began to sing. I never heard anything like it. Not a frog moved, they all just sat and sang.
