The Legend of Rainbow

A long time ago, there was a farmer. He had a small farm. One day he found
that a wall which he had built on previous days was getting knocked down. The farmer
did not know who or what made it. Because he felt tired of this happening the farmer
decided to catch who should be responsible.
One evening, while the farmer was in guard he heard something strange near
that wall, then he ran to find out who or what it was. It was surprising him because
there were three star maidens there. When they saw the farmer was approaching,
they tried to escape. Two of the star maidens could run and escape but one of them
was left behind.
The farmer then caught the star maiden. She was beautiful and soon the farmer
felt in love with her. Because he was afraid that the star maiden would run away, the
farmer hid her magical wings so she could not fly anymore. the farmer and the star
maiden got married.
Time went by they live together and got a beautiful baby boy. They lived happily
for a long time, until one day, the star maiden found her magical wings near their
house. She wore her wings back and flew with her son next to her. The farmer was
alone and heartbroken.
The gods saw the tears of the farmer. They felt pity of him so they decided to
build a bridge of different colors for him to climb to the sky and see his son and wife.
Then, this bridge now called rainbow.
