the children


 

They wanted to catch the wind

Can you imprison the wind?

the child boy cried

They wanted to cage the sea

Can you command the sea?

the child girl cried

They wanted to pull the wings off all the flying eagles

How can the sky stay up without eagles?

the children cried

They wanted also to take the death

Is it possible to control death?

the children cried

you love and respect her

and she will respect you

you forget

and she will teach you!

then children threw a fistful of sand at their faces

Is it perhaps possible to count the sand?

they said

and went away
