THERE ARE PEOPLE..........Part 1
The day unfolded calmly, the eastern orange nagging me to go for my morning runs. I flew slowly watching the mortal world below me welcome a new day. Life hasn't been exciting lately ever since the son of Zeus came for me. I'm just tryna adapt to my ancestral home anyway. "Change is inevitable, but it has shortcomings," ~ Margaret Ogola in her novel The River and The Source.
I've made it a routine visiting the shores early mornings to watch the marines parade and listen to their hymns. Talk of an excuse to see the love of my life daily......I know y'all understand, no judging though. A tiny turtle is struggling to get back in the water and I reach to help. I can see his distraction by my huge wings and from the look on his face, he loves them, I think. It's not common for my fire family to go near the water kingdom anyway....I guess there's more that astonishes him. For some strange reason I can't tell, he thinks he can trust me and starts ranting of how life hasn't been fair to him lately. Isn't it too early to give me negative narratives kid??........am slightly annoyed but listening to laments killed no one
He's a boy anyway. Why would a small and innocent soul be this sad on a bright morning of a bright day?!! Sometimes happiness is a mindset, so is the vice versa............but he's too young to understand. After some deep thinking I find my vocals,"Listen to me kid,.........in this world, there are people and people.
.......There are people who enjoy the view of the blue skies and the touch of white sands, but there are also people who would die to inhale the moist breeze in the forests and soak their feet in the dew on the grass.
There are people who love the view of the red deserts and enjoy the scorch on their skin, but there's also another breed of people who prefer the melodious voices of the morning birds and the orange view of the sun through their windows.
There are people who have fallen in love with taking photos of the streetlights of the big city, but we have those who get comforted by the haunting dark and creeping silence of the cemetery.
There are people who enjoy solo rides and the solitude of their own company, but there are people who believe and cherish the idea of socialism and extrovert mindsets.
There are people who believe in the Holy Gospel and the salvation of the son of God, but we have souls who have devoted their valuables and life to the spirits and powers of doctrines beyond, just as there exists another set of people who believe in the universality and mystery of the galaxies, universe and creation at large.
There are people who would tear their cloak to stop you from bleeding, and in the same way we have others who would house and feed the villain sent to terminate your life.
There are people who get comforted hysterically by the deep connection of poetry and artistic hymns from the world of creativity, but there are also people who enjoy the human company and simple conversations over simple worldly matters.
There are people who carry the banners and lamps of abnormality and crazy deeds of the abnormal ones, but also we have those who worship normality and adhere to the rules of basic behavior like their life depend on it.
There are people whose souls thirst for the pleasure of pain and the complexity of emotions with spices of torments, but there exists those whose only desire is bright days and happy moments in their entire mortal life.
Interestingly we have people who respectfully understand that we are from a different time and species far beyond their own,......but it's sad how we still got those who judge us and cast curses to the demons we are!!
And kid........all these are people child,
And they'll remain to be people,
And we are us,
And we'll remain to be us,
And them, them!"
