My Brambles

I want to be a Rock Star... (continued 2)...

​​As Hewy the troll continued to remember those events that shaped his outlook on life, he let his mind roll back the stones of time.  He remembered how he had started out on his adventure with his head in the clouds and a pocket full of dreams.   Hewy knew that to find the right beat to get into a band,  he might need to start by getting a new look.
​As he kept rolling those thoughts around in his head as to what that look could be, it had become late in the afternoon.  Questions continued pounding around in his head looking for answers, but the sun was beating down on him and the babbling brook running along the path did look so inviting... what would it hurt to stop for a short rest?  Sitting down by a cool pool of water, he tried to answer one of those nagging questions.  “Am I too plain to play music?" he asked himself aloud.  "What type of spin am I going to have to put on this pointy head of mine in order to find my rhythm?”  Wanting to look at his face to determine what would it take for his new look, Hewy leaned over the edge of the brook.

​​As he leaned over to take a look at the reflection of his face, he heard a voice.

"Yep, you do look a little bland,” the voice said.

Hewy jumped and looked around but there was no one there although he could hear something that sounded like bubbling laughter.  ​
​Again he bent over to look into the stream, and again the voice spoke to him.  “Go visit the Potter.  She will help you find what it is you are looking for.”

Hewy suddenly realized that maybe the voice was coming from the brook (after all, they aren't called babbling brooks for nothing).  Nodding his head, he decided to test his theory by asking what direction this potter lived.

“Go down the stream until coming to a bend.  Take the high road to the left and over the next knoll you will find the potter."  Realizing that the brook was indeed helping him, he thanked the brook and set off to find the potter.  (Incidentally, it wasn't until many years later Hewy found out that the brook did not really speak to him, it was two Pyksees hiding in the cat-tails trying to get him lost (pyksee-lated)... but that is another story).
​After many hours of walking down the stream and still not finding the bend in the brook nor the high road or the potter, Hewy figured he was truly lost.
​Deciding to rest his tired feet for a few minutes, he chose a large rock near the stream to lean against.  As he put his hand on the rock, he heard a loud voice holler "What are you doing putting your hand in my ear?"
Startled, Hewy looked around, but again did not see where the voice was coming from.  "If you touch me again young troll-odyte, I will not be very happy," Hewy heard the voice again say. Walking around the rock, Hewy discovered his mistake.  Instead of leaning on a rock, he had found another troll, and not just any troll, but an 'Ancient One'.  After apologizing several times to the 'Ancient One', Hewy explained he was lost and could the Ancient One help him find his way to the potter.  With a rumble and a roll, the Ancient One told him the directions and sent him on his way.  (Actually, I think the old troll just wanted some peace and quiet and figured that was the fastest way to get rid of Hewy).

After crossing a field and turning at the edge of the forest, Hewy found the trail to the potter's shop.  "Right where the Ancient One said it would be found," he though.  "I wonder how the potter will help me with my look?  Oh well, I won't find out by standing at the door step.  The sign does says that the potter is in, so in I go."
