Dark Valley
The clouds turning dark
As the sisters running away
The farmer and his family look
The white forms disappearing
"Who are they Dad?"
"I don't know honey
I can't see it clearly from here
I can tell you they are women running"
The clouds camouflage the women
For a while they manage to hide amongst trees
Then the bright rays of the moon shining through
The farmer uses his binocular to observe the images
"Come on Dad what do you see?"
"I can see them now under the moon light
Oh my god! I..I..I can't tell you what I see!"
"You look pale Dad what's wrong?!"
The sisters shifting from tree to tree
As the moon light shining on the farm
"We can't be here for long....people may know
We have to move quickly before the time changes"
"We can live in the banana trees
Let us stay here for a while........."
"I know you have feeling on this farm
You mustn't allow it to cloud your mind"
The farmer trains on his binocular
His eyes scanning the running women
They run to the banana orchard....then disappear
He wipes his sweat on his forehead recognizing his late wife
