Life

A thunder came.... nothingness was filled,
Shadows of the rising dawn were lifted from ancient eyes.
A new beginning, a rise of stars.
Magnificence and grandeur were battling each other,
no one was watching, yet thunder came, thunder roared.

And then there was silence once again.
Mighty elements sat in silent awe... wondering.. gasping...
With light came hope, with light came warmth...
With light came life...

Suddenly, thunder came again... rain dropped from the sky,
a new world was born..
Magnificence created one more time.
And afterwards... there could be only silence..
So beautiful... such awe...

Years went by, until the silence was broken by a cry.
A piercing cry, a cry to be heard, to be understood...
A cry like no other cries...
A cry no one had ever heard....

Slowly... the elements shifted,
after an eternity of silence...
Cold ancient eyes began to turn slowly.
Great stone eyes which had never turned before.
A new beginning was coming... a new thunder would come!
After this cry... life will never be the same...
