 A CHILD WALKS ON TO TOMORROW The rising of the sun sets the new day wherein the leaves will fall to the rivers; the rivers will run to the seas, and the seas will forever clap against the pebbled shores. Across these shores the wind will eternally play with the sand, tossing it high and sprinkling it down over the earth. Then the wind travels on; now across the sands and time, over the meadows of its past, down the hills into the valley. Joyfully whistling its way up through the thick grass, it captures the birds’ sweet chorus sifting it gently through the branches of the trees. Now the ears of a child hear its melodious tones, and he mixes it with the sounds of his mocking and laughs as he unknowingly follows life’s chosen paths. The sun floats down, filling the sky with cascades of glorious colors . . . colors whose brightness is forever free of tarnish, for at this instant the beauty of the moment is tucked safely away awaiting another new day. With the sun,, the wind and the seas a child walks on to tomorrow. TPG
