into the dusty grounds
with the sky so bare
no clouds to shield
the earth from
the sun's intrepidity.
With the bare sky
and the disturbing weather
came a parched creature
looking for something
to eat and drink
unfortunately...
there was none.
The discouraged creature
continued to walk
despite its disappearing strength
searching for food and water
until there was nothing
of its strength left
but its thin
and quivering body
It collapsed into
the hot surface
with its unclean
and dry skin
unconscious
for a long time
Until someone
from up above
took its life
with perfect love
and adoration
in His eyes
Together
they flew up
into the high skies
until they reached
their destination...
HEAVEN.
