The little ghost…
One of those warm days during the Arctic Autumn
A tiny, tiny ghost, sliding downhill on a stalactite was
He just wanted for a moment to forget his simple and bored life
In particular, not to think about those dreams that keeps him sad
As always, even when playing, he gets lost and forgets where he stands
And for that reason he did not see the water drop catching him up
It was like a tsunami for which no warning has been set up
Poor ghost, in less than a second he himself inside the drop has been trapped
Ghosty, named like that by his friends, spent several hours inside the drop
Just paralyzed like looking far…. far…. far ….so far
It was just a coincidence that his friend Eder approached him that day
Not again, not again!! What is wrong with you Ghosty, that was what he said
Do not tell me that you are having those dreams with that princess again!
You need to do something, that woman does not exist and you should forget her!
You are totally wrong my friend Eder, she is just right there!
This water drop is magic, and it is just a huge observatory better than the Hubble telescope
I can see from here not only Lyra, but all those planets orbiting the Vega star
I know that within that disk of dust, there is another earth where she is at
Eder was surprised about what he heard, but he thought, this guy is as craziest as before!
Ghosty, wake up! She is so far, how are you going to get there?
The answer was fast! It is only twenty five light years far, it is really not much
I have found the way to curve the space and time using the properties of a wishing star
It will be easy to reach this northern pole dot and be able to find her after all…
Are you kidding Ghosty? Even if you can get there, finding her will take a lot
She is not waiting for you, she does not know anything about you
I know Eder, I know…. But just few days before I leave the earth to finding her
I will send her a message that everybody in the galaxy will detect
I am planning to make a gigantic rainbow from Boston to Paris
and with all the red orchids and fireflies the planet earth gives in spring
I will light the sky up and show her how much I care and all the things I feel
My friend, but you have seem her only in your dreams and never looked closed at her
You are right Eder!
It has been only couple times when during a second I looked through her eyes
But it was enough to discover the most beautiful sea with coral reefs full of life
It was like entering a new world, like tasting chocolate for the first time …
Right Ghosty, right….
But what would you do if her heart indeed belongs to another ghost
Eder, that is the one million dollar question, and, certainly
I do not have a plan to carry on
Suddenly, at that very moment the northern lights
started to show their splendor beyond description
and a flash of polar wind started to crystallize
the tiny drop without Ghosty noticing at all
It was amazing but Eder could not believe what he just saw
when getting close to the drop
The image of a magnificent woman
printed on his tears that now were just snow…
