The Thorny Ghost

Mira was a gifted poetess. She loved every little thing about the Enchanted Forest. That is where she got all the ideas for her beautiful lyrics. Her mother was very worried whenever she sent Mira out to the village river to do the family’s laundry. She knew that Mira often dawdled when she was distracted by the beauty of some flower or if she heard the gurgling of some stream. Mira’s mother knew that if Mira did not leave the Enchanted Forest by nightfall, the Thorny Giant, who loved to feast on human flesh, would make a yummy meal out of Mira’s tender bones. Every afternoon, therefore, Mira’s mother would urge Mira to come back before the sun went to bed.
Mira was always cautious, and heeded her mother’s warnings. One day, however, Mira saw a beautiful lotus blossom in the marshes by the river. As she sat admiring the pink blossom, a new poem took birth in her mind. In her glee, she forgot all about the approaching dusk. Suddenly, she was awoken from her reverie by a thundering noise. She recognized it as the footfall of the Thorny Ghost. She panicked. She had to think up of a plan, if she did not want to fall prey to the monster. As she scoured her mind for ideas, she remembered that the ghost could not swim…

What did Mira do to escape from the Thorny Ghost?

Then Mira spoke to the ghost in a loud voice, Ghost, I am the goddess of this river, and if you come here again I will send my powers on you and you will die! The Thorny Ghost became very scared. He ran away to some other distant land and was never seen again in Mira's village. When Mira got home she told her mother what had happened. Her mother gave her a scolding. So Mira always came home before dusk.
