Marom

The continuous hum of falling water floated up to the group where they descended. Everything was so vibrant. The rich green grass of the hill contrasted with the deep red colour of the dirt where well-worn tracks snaked their way down. Large red brown rocks created the platform of the bluff. The water came gushing down the creek and fell down a small waterfall into a dark and shining pool the size of a car, before it descended several metres beyond what the eye could see. On the far side of the creek the same red became green again as the next hill rose towards the clear blue sky.

Large trees arched their thick green branches over the abyss below the precipice. They sat in a cluster next to the rocks, creating a small oasis hidden within the valley of rolling pastures. Some of the rocks looked to have been created for the soul purposes of furniture, seats, a table, stairs. They were smooth and stained by the dirt of the hills. The air was crisper down here, the smell of fresh cow dung, rich soils mingled with the smell of moisture in the air.

The group became quiet and relaxed as they walked slowly down the paths, the heat of the day’s conversations already cooling in the oasis.
