The Artist and The Stranger
Part 3 from the serie "Pictures of the old world"
Author A. Galko
Well, ladies and gentlemen,
this story, in a number of variants, repeatedly told,
happened in our town like this:
In the basement of an old abandoned house
lived a solitary painter.
He was a talented...
but he didn't have enough money for canvases...
so he drew on his walls, arches and ceilings. Wherever he could: he drew!
In general, art is difficult to live from,
so after finishing in his basement he started working in the city.
During the long cold evenings, when he couldn't go out, He just sat by the fire and dreamed
He gave soul to his dreamwoman, while more and more withdrawing from life outside.
But as she came to live she made him look differently upon his shack.
Winter had come to the city.
It's her!!
I'm sure it's her!
Restlessly he rushed about looking for her.
The way his dream kept burning in him,
encouraged him to maintain hope.
Loyal to that hope, he kept saying to himself:
"Just peek in all the windows until...
none has been left unpeeked, to find her...
that's all... "
It is well known, that in general time heals all wounds.
but it doesn't heal love...
Our hopes and wishes often get fulfilled at Christmas.
Her!
this must be her's!
Christmas Eve can never be an ordinary evening,
That was true for this evening too.
Since that time, the signs in our city...
are painted by a another artist.
