Aboriginal Dreamtime Stories –The Rainbow SerpentIn the Dreamtime all earth lay sleeping. Nothing moved. Nothing grew. One day the Rainbow Serpent awoke from her sleep and came out from under the ground.She travelled far and wide and grew tired and curled up and slept. She left marks of her sleeping body and her winding tracks. Then she returned to the place where she had first appeared, and called to the frogs, “Come out!”The frogs came out slowly because their bellies were full with water. The Rainbow serpent tickled their stomachs and when the frogs laughed, water ran all over the earth to fill the tracks of where the Rainbow serpent had moved before. This is how lakes and rivers were formed.With water, grass and trees grew. Also, all animals awoke and followed the rainbow serpent across the land. They were happy on earth and each lived and found food with his own tribe. Some animals live in rocks, others on the plains and others in trees and in the air.The Rainbow Serpent made laws that they all were to obey, but some began to fight and argue and make trouble. The Rainbow Serpent said,” Those who keep my laws will be rewarded; I shall make them human. Those who break my laws will be punished and turned to stone, never to walk the earth again.The lawbreakers became stone and turned to mountains and hills, but those who kept the laws were turned into people. The Rainbow Serpent gave each of them their own totem of the animal, bird or reptile from where they came. The tribes knew themselves by their totems. Some totems were kangaroo, emu, carpet snake, and many more. So no one would starve, the Rainbow Serpent ruled that no man should eat of his totem, but only animals of other totems. This way there was food for everyone.The tribes lived together on the land given to them by the Rainbow Serpent and knew the land would always be theirs, and no one should ever take it from them .Questions Try to answer using sentences with Capitals and Full stops.1.
