And lo, i stood, staring into the beauty of the sky. I wandered my eyes appreciating nature. The sky, seemingly a blue ocean with white matter clustered due to visible mass of water (ocean) droplet being suspended in the air. The cloud; the white matter clustered seems to welcome light eliciting the opening of the heavens. It also moves across the ocean forming shapes and making visible the ocean at intervals.
As i looked deeper into the sky, i wondered what it was revealing. my mind wandered to the science philosophy of the ‘earth’ marveling at the mystery of the ground being similar to the sky as science describes the earth as round and revolving. Shifting my gaze to the other end of the sky, there it was, a war in the sky. I saw two men on horses fighting each other, a man running with his daughter as though they were being pursued, gazing further, there was something in the sky i could not quite place. I overlooked it, kept looking into the turbulent sky. Then, i spotted it once more, this time a bit clearer . It was a real human not the cloud,ย he stood in a boat with a net thrown out as that of a fisherman. He had a hat worn loosely over his head. As i kept staring at him, he moved from that angle of my view to another, then another, till he was close to the place i stood.
The sky seemed to bend at that moment making it appear like i was at the extreme end of the earth.I had a closer view, i saw his face clearly, he wore a sad face looking like i could change his mood for the better. i was terrified, could not mutter a word. i knew i wanted to say something but, we both stood looking at each other while silence engulfed us. Just as i was about to mutter a word, i heard my name!!! i jolted back to life, waking up to reality….
