The Wind Will Rise

June 12, 2011: My mom, some classmates, and I went to what was suppose to be my dads old home. There we were gathering/collection a bunch of seemingly random things. We were on the second floor which was accessed by a ladder. According to Mom we had to step on certain things. My thoughts told me that it was to keep the spirits resting. We gathered at least four things when I started to get lazy and ignore what my mom was saying. When I reached the other side of the 'house' (looked like a barn to me) I had noticed that the sun had risen Mom said that dad had tied a leather strap to a web beam (it's a support beam). This strap would signify when the wind would pick up, which said that the spirits were disturbed. Mom started to sing...

The sun has risen
but...
The Wind will rise
we must hurry out.
even though
the sun is high up,
the wind will rise

"Someone please help us! Please, somebody!" My mom yelled, than I woke up.
