The Treasure of Lemon Brown: Falling Action+Resolution
So I asked him, "How did you get homeless? He said, "I used to play the blues, they said I played so sweetly at funerals, the dead man, would come back to life" "Wow that's amazing" I said. Then I asked if he had a family. He said, "Used to, my wife died and my son went on to the military." I said, "You would be proud, did he come back?" Lemon Brown said, "Sadly no, I got a letter sayin' he died, I still kept that letter. Sure makes me remember all the good times we had." I started to feel really bad for him, poor guy. I wish I could help him. I can't believe he's so wise and nice. So I finally asked him, "So what is your treasure after all? Lemon Brown picked up a bag and while he did he said, "You know, you ain't bad like them thugs." All I saw was yellow newspaper clippings and a beat up harmonica. "This harmonica is old but it still got some meanin', listen here boy, treasure ain't always what money, its whats important to you." he said. "I'm gonna be goin' to St. Louis tomorrow." he informed. Well Lemon Brown I can honestly say, I'll never forget you. He said, Now you get home now, your parents might be worried bout' you."
