                                                    FLOWER IN THE DESSERT

This happened in many many summers ago...


There was a young flower in the desert where all was dry and sad looking.... It was growing by itself...enjoying everyday... and saying to the sun " When shall i grown up"? and the sun would say " Be patient"---Each time I touch you, you grow a little".. and she was so pleased. Because each would have a chance to bring beauty to this corner of sand...And this is all she wanted to do ...bring a little bit of beauty to this world...
One day the hunter came by---and stepped on her.--She was going to die---and she felt so sad.. Not because she was dying--but because she would not have a chance to bring a little bit of beauty to this corner of the desert.
The great spirit saw her, and was listening.--Indeed, he said...she should be living... And he reached down and touched her---and gave her life. And she grew up to be a bneautiful flower...and this corner of the desert became so beautiful beacuse of her.
