Tombée du ciel

The little girl got to the garden… It was too clean and clear, not even one sign of color or flowers or anything alive… Just plain green all over the space… Nothing but grass, sleeping grass… But she felt that there was something there that was worth finding… She just couldn’t see it… She kept wandering in the garden all day long in vain… till she got so tired that she fell asleep on the grass.She had a dream… In her dream she sees a shadow. The beautifully shaped shadow smiles at her, yet the second it almost touches her hand she wakes up. Only to realize that it’s dark now… and surprisingly, it is always in the dark that we find what we look for… She saw that there was a light coming out of somewhere in the garden… She thought “could my instinct be right after all?” The terror of the darkness was so suspenseful that she couldn’t wait to reach the light… What is it and where is it coming from? The closer she got to the source the more blind she became…

Closer and closer, there it was, right there: a fallen star.

    Your writing inspires me in many ways starting with the feeling of being unashamed to write my feelings fantasies and wonders down on blank sheets of paper!! I am anxious to read more of your works!
