TWO COMRADES

Two friends were walking through the forest. Suddenly a bear came out of the bushes. One person got scared and started to run. He climbed a tree and trembled with fear. His friend did not have time to hide. Help was far away. He fell to the ground and pretended to be dead. The bear wandered beside him and went into the forest. This is how a friend in need is known.

AT NIGHT

Night threw a black cloak over the old park. No one has walked along its overgrown paths for a long time. Heavy ivy covered the heavy gates. A narrow path leads to the old castle. The brick cracked. The door slumped. Quiet and silence. And earlier balls thundered here, youth had fun.

LILY OF THE VALLEY

This gentle lily of the valley raised its white heads above the carpet of juicy and shiny leaves. A ray of sun breaks through the branches of an old linden tree. Droplets of morning dew burn on lilies of the valley with a cheerful fire.
