Owl Joe and Dove July

Owl  Joe and Dove July meet in the forest. They become very close friends. Owl Joe is very helpful and kind and Dove July doesn’t want to break her friends’ heart. But there is a problem. Owl Joe doesn’t sleep at night but at the day-time. And dove July stays awake because she wants to be with Joe all the time. When  July tries to sleep at the day time, her  friends  come to her house and wake her up.

-          Wake up July! Are you still sleeping? It’s time for playing.

-          Ok. Where will we  go?

-          There is a place near the lake. We can go there.

Her  friends  don’t  understand  that  she is tired and sleepy. July and her friends play all day long.  At last, her  friends  get tired and go their homes.  In the midnight Dove July meets Owl Joe in the forest.

-          You  look so pale July.

-          Oh! I’m too tired because I haven't slept  for  two days.

-          Why didn’t  you sleep July?

-          Because  you  stay  awake  all  the  night and the only  way  that  we can be together is that.

Owl  Joe understands everything more clearly.  They go to July’s home together  and  Owl Joe wait all the night behind her while she is sleeping.  In the morning  July’s  friends  knock July’s door.  Owl Joe says them:

-          July is very tired and she is sleeping.

-          Why is she so tired?

-          Because she wants to be with me all the nights  and it makes her  feel  so tired.

Owl Joe , Dove July and July’s friends make an agreement . At the end , Dove July and her friends play at day time as usual. Before Owl Joe sleeps, they meet at July’s house everyday.

Moral:  Trying to please everyone is the key of the failure of a man.
