I saw a little
angel at the edge of the forest.
As I approached her, I saw her crying.
Without asking, she replied:
The forest no longer responds to invitations.
Flora has left this world
because its cruelty shocked her.
Soon, Fauna will be gone, too.
They go to another planet,
where the Creator brings oxygen and water,
but not people.
Why are you crying?
Isn't that a good thing?
We Guardian Angels die
together with those we protect.
We have failed in our mission.
Then we sat on the rock hand in hand
to wait for the end of this world.
I winked at the angel and asked:
"Is this going to take long"?
The girl couldn't be
without smiling.
