A STORY ABOUT A VISIT TO THE FOREST

image003.png

It was sometime later at school before we got our holidays! ‘Our class teacher proposed a trip to visit the forest. The trip followed our monthly Geography Practical Exercise which we had previously covered. The complexity of the physical features like the igneous rocks formed by magma that flows from underneath the earth’s crust and then coalesce onto the surface; from where the magma finally coagulate to form rocks; and many more scenes or features which are similar to those’ were a center of learning onto our visit. ‘More important also; the class teacher said that’ we shouldn’t miss out a brief research onto the plateaus and the landslides ever formed by the changes and forces of downward and upward warping of land masses…!’ Mr. Ray Richmond Davidson our geography teacher emphasized that; before the students must attempt fully to understand the topic about physical geography; there was a lot of practical research to be carried out,’ of the many areas visited for the research work was a very large forest which was surrounded by mountains! The forest’s location was so good; set with a lot of greenery, tall trees, shrubs, a waterfall with sparkling water and a wide range of plateaus covered by savannah type of vegetation that looked unique and beautiful!’ The view when seen from far, flourished with beauty and glamour; it extremely overshadowed than an archipelago that was seen from the far east! Truly; the forest reserved a bigger advantage of tourism than the archipelago within the vicinity.

‘To most of the children in the class, the visit was such a big opportunity to explore, look at the new sceneries, expose themselves to the mountain environment, and also to carry out research about the mountain areas and the trees or other plant species. "It was from the same visit that; we felt exposed to the most obtrusive and frightening dingle or dell with aged gnarled wooden trees and trunks; looking down into the wooden valley which was overwhelmed by doom and darkness from above where we stood; was so scary; frightening and horrendous!

Ooh…ooh…ooh…what a doom of fear!’ We all appalled. It was so frightening to look down into a quiet valley perhaps a dingle. Master Herbert said that exploring an impenetrable area like the dingle has always been a fool’s errand for many years…!’ (True master…!!! This place shows no sign of human life that has ever settled or lived into it’ before or after; other than the ancient mythologies like the dinarsols). Hesitantly; Jacqueline one of the students exclaimed. What an apocryphal Jackie…!" Unfortunately; you may be wrong about that..!

Stone Age men lived everywhere; they were wild less like the dinarsols. retrospectively!’ David gave a brief review about the ageing facts of the dell.

It was the first time for most of the students onto the trip to visit such a cloudy forest which was extremely large, thick and populated…! The forest was fully covered by thick tall dense trees and many scattered twisted short shrubs which are quite common into bushes ...! Our master emphasized that; it was one of the ever green forests that existed into the Tropics and the Sub-Sahara regions’ amongst many others. We travelled by bus all the way; whereas other forest areas elsewhere into the region, people have to use a ferry to reach the forest. With all the gusto! The patron and the children in the bus; found their first experience throughout the expedition so exciting and educative…! It took us many hours while onto the road till we finally reached… "(Like most of the children in the bus, Jacqueline was always quiet and observant..! ‘Except for Daniel; he was extremely eager’ he kept chanting with the master’ all throughout the way; some of the time he reduced the silence and boredom into the bus by doing a few psalms…!) ‘And then others could also follow with the chorus.

After hours of travelling through doglegs; zigzag corners and the steep slippery roads, we were able to approach a sign post which had to direct us to another way towards the crossroads. Soon after reaching the crossroads, we took a left turn’ this time the road was so narrow but wide and visibly tidy; unlike many roads ever been’ which leads to isolated areas and certainly obtrusive places where the movement of people isn’t frequent! The road to the forest was open and clearly accessible. ‘Along the sides as we kept moving; we met two men; one of them stood akimbo and another one laid calm onto a big rock before a hip of bagasse with his right arm’ inclined onto his cheek..! They were very untidy and dressed in shambles like they have been farming the whole day; and then; had just had a break off to chew the sugar canes. As we closely approached them; both men looked so relaxed however remote they seemed to live’ they did not make any steps which showed a person who has receded into fear of the visitors or strangers entering the forest! Instead what was finally realized of them’ was a kind of acclamation and adieu as we also waved back…good day.’ After a few meters away as we drove on, also we came across three eyasses (young hawks) they seemed to have come from a falconry seen across…… ‘The driver of the bus steadily moved’ till we got to a T-junction that led us to the main route going to the forest reserve. From that point; riding was a little bit slow..! For’ there were humps and bumps which forces traffic to drive more slowly..!’

Deborah one of our patrons onto the trip recited a significant reason for such slow traffic! She said that most friendly wild life like: monkeys, zebras, antelopes, giraffes do deliberate themselves as they freely ramble with their calves! So the humps established onto the road ameliorate all the accident risks to both the vehicles accessing the forest areas and the animals too; which must cross over any time of the day. Shortly after the humps zone, we were finally into the forest reserve now heading to the green, orange and white painted forest structures. As soon as we had passed the forest main gate which was guarded by three armed rangers; we were asked to take the right turn’ and then head on’ to the quarters or the main units (structures) of the forest rangers.’ Within the vicinity was also the visitor’s waiting parlor; a structure painted with sparkling white and the tiling done with black and white tiles. Right here; all the game rangers began emphasizing about the safety onto the forest campus! ‘But; they said that; the waiting parlor was a safe place for the visitors; even the wildest and most dangerous animals feared the whitish color and could hardly come any nearer to that structure like they did to the green and dull orange structures! True; the parlor was built and planned basing onto animal instincts about fear’ it also had a finite entry that strictly let people in’ but not animals. ‘So; where a person could be in trouble or lost into the forest; the parlor was the only safe place to run to; it was quite visible and could be clearly seen from almost every angle around the forest. ‘Around the parlor; is where we were asked to off load our luggage from the bus while waiting for further instructions from the forest staffs. Aaron Baker a staff; who was busy grooming the Pontus monkeys, the antelopes, the horse’s mane and the two zebras; was immediately asked to stop what he was doing and then start helping the children off load their bags from the bus. The rules onto and into the forest, were clearly defined to the children; but much of what was required of any visitors’ was to avoid being too loud, all the children were asked to keep their voices down and low while into the forest; or else; the most deadly and dangerous animals would be provoked from where they had laid doggo’ to come and attack or strike…!’ Baker was such a humble worker; he bathed, he cared, he brushed the animals’ mane into a cote; the duty that seemed disparaging to all the children who watched him doing that… .…!’ Remarkably; caring about the animals seemed to be a comfortable duty to Baker, we were all amazed by the kind of resilience he showed by the moment the donkey brayed so loud as if it wanted to feed’ but then after; when Aaron Baker closed onto it; it knocked him then sadly fell down! Whew…whew…whew...! All the children sounded loud while the others felt too sorry for him. But Baker quickly stood up calm!

He seemed so easy, assertive and not uppity…! He then walked away resonating about a zany creature! He said: donkey is always like that; before I feed him, he tends to be troublesome. It took us a few minutes to off-load the luggage from the bus; about how fast; all was for Baker’s repression and ability; that everything went on smooth and quickly. From that time on’ there was always a braying donkey which seemed to be attracting Baker’s attention! Pooh….Pooh…pooh…! The children could scare them off as they kept on uttering harshly! But; unlike the donkeys, the two horses were always calm, relaxed and at ease…. .….! They were the loveliest creatures ever’ to be adored by all the children onto the visit…! Exclaimed Shawn Adams. ‘Deborah our patron was so moved by Baker’s attention towards all the animals; but then asked him whether he ever got along with the donkeys too…?’ Then Baker answered that; most of the times yes; but at times playing with the dreariest and tedious animals like the donkeys could earn you a sucker-punch before you asked for it, especially when donkey hasn’t had his food.

After finalizing everything around the visitor’s waiting parlor with Baker; we were welcomed by another group of people who identified themselves as forest rangers. But amongst them’ was a Forester! A man of the late thirties who was extremely tall, slender and tough! What the rangiest of a forester? (All the children chuckled). Risibly; Paul Mathew was extremely tall; his height greatly excited the children so much; much more that; their minds now began to focus onto the authenticity of Mathew’s nature! Some children had learnt about the past creatures known as Australopithecus those which lived about three million years ago and were similar to the humans and the apes! They were believed to be not as tall the height of Mathew; in fact they were shorter; but with similar challenges elsewhere in the world’ about man’s origin; the children continued to wonder how much more can history prove man’s true existence today…?’ but especially the Australopithecus? without any hesitations thereafter; any more truth about Paul Mathew the forester was to be accentuated and also regarded as another area of study about any other people believed to be his origin. Thus… .…!" the glimpse at Mathew’s nature left no doubting Thomas amongst all the visitors; however reserved with a pejorative sense about a human they had seen’ and standing right before them! Not the master, not the children or the patrons ever tried to make another comment after! It all ended into tete-a-tete meanwhile the forester continued to give more briefs about the forest environment and the dangers into it.

The disclosure of a tall, tough, slender person who had emerged from the dark corners of the last ends of the forest units incited excitement and laughers! Neither’ I nor any other children onto the visit had ever set the eyes onto a rangiest person who was straight, tall, taller but tallest like a pine tree that has aged for more than five years…. .…..’ Finally; David uttered out an innuendo! Mathew knew everything about forests, soon after that; he ordered three of the rangers to provide every student with an army green overall which bared a blue and red forest emblem; and also a pair of white gumboots. The rangers said that a green suit would familiarize us to the forest environment which is green; and would also keep us safe from
