The Flake

There was some fuss in the endless universe. Whatever happened for millions of years and numerous times was now driving everyone mad. The reason was that the most fragile of all creatures was ever so upset by some earthly power…

One of the angels hastily dipped into a cloud and when feeling the incognizable Creator approach him, he turned to him and said:

“My Lord, today I happened to walk along Your delightful clouds and all of a sudden I heard a sound oddly enough from here. I got closer and carefully observed it and to my surprise I saw a Flake incarnated from waters crying. As a response to my question as to why he was so sad and at a loss, especially here in the skies where there are no reasons for grief, he noted:”

“I want to go to Earth. I have dreamt about a creature, so gentle, so kind!…”

“Then my Lord, he paused for a moment and then started entreating”:

“Oh my snow-white angel with a plain and pure soul, ask the Almighty to grant me with strong wings so that I can handle the landing. I must see her…”

And the answer growled all over the universe and was heard by everyone:

“LET HIM GO!...”

Everyone gathered at the god-hewn stairs and followed the Flake that was hardly discernible.

Every single one in the universe wished to help this sorrowful creature with its advice.

The stars eagerly gave the Flake their form for they were well aware that they were a lovely object to watch down from Earth…

The Wind-handler promised to provide his safe landing.

And the Moon spread dreamy light gleams onto his face.

The Senior angel, responsible for the fate promised to arrange the exact time on Earth and then spoke honestly in front of everyone:

“What will happen afterwards is unknown to me either.”

The Flake, touched by the attention of everyone present, expressed its full-hearted gratitude. Accompanied by cheerful greetings, it rushed down to Earth …

The snowflakes that came along the way heard the latest news and respectfully welcomed and accompanied him with best wishes.

The Flake did not know how to express its happiness.

“Yes! Down and down to the Earth, to the life and love...”

And the winds were guiding it, completely turned into tenderness and on noticing the slow cycle of the Earth, left…

The fate, in its turn, did what it had to do...

And a girl, admiring the beautiful February and perhaps the last snowfall of the year, ran out and started to dance joyfully and crazily with the snowflakes.

All of a sudden she looked up and noticed a refulgent flake that stood out in the flow of the falling snow and following its track, she stopped.

“There she is!” exclaimed the Flake and whirling with infinite happiness came down onto her open palm. The Flake wished to tell her that its landing had been an outcome of love… but it did not get to…

The girl kissed the big and beautiful Flake with her warm breath. Then with a delightful smile, she shook off the remaining water on her hand and continued walking…
