PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Awakening in a dark place might seem scary at first. But as soon as the sun starts to shine and light begins to filter the water, everything starts to feel better. When the sun kisses the horizon and the wind begins to whisper to the mountains, a new day begins, and so does a new life. Everything starts with light, and then comes the rest. That is what the Gods agreed. First came the creation of the sunlight, then the plants, and at last the animals.

The first that woke up where the fish, confused about their purpose and believing that they could do anything they wanted, that everything was theirs. They could only see around them, and could only see the sky, which they thought was part of their ocean because there was no one else to be seen, and it was blue, just as their surroundings. They lived in harmony with each other. Nothing to fight about. Until the birds came and conquered the skies. And the fish realized that the vast blue something above them was not theirs. The birds, calmer creatures than the fish learnt that the world was for them to share.

The fish being impatient and selfish creatures wanted to try and fly, and they tried. They tried one million times, and one million times they failed. They wanted to have everything. They didn’t like feeling like they were below, they wanted to be everywhere. The conflicts arose. And a war begun, and it lasted many years. Until one day the god of animals came and talked to them. He said “Let us all live in peace, because I have not created a world in which my creations would live in constant war, because of territorial disputes, there is enough place for everyone. We must all learn to share and be respectful. We are all different, capable of many different things. Stay calm and live in harmony, because that is why earth was created. A place to enjoy and a place to be free”.

From that moment, they learnt that everybody has a different purpose and place. It’s up to them to decide how to live. Its our mission to be happy and let everyone else be happy too.

More creatures came around and the fish and birds thought them what the God told them, about sharing and peace. And that is how a happy world stared.
