The Magic Man

The 'Magic Man' once flipped a very bright golden coin high up into the sky and the bright shining sun was born. He blew gently up above and the blue sky and the white clouds appeared. Then he looked again into the sky as it grew black and dark, and flipped another bright silver coin into the sky, and the brilliant white moon was born. He took a handful of magic stardust and sprinkled it into the void, and the bright shining stars appeared across the expanse of the heavens, shining their light eternally. He whispered the word and a line was drawn, half of the time the sun would shine, and the other half of the time the bright silver moon would reign with the stars high above. He sprinkled some emerald confetti on the land, and the grass carpet of green, and the roots of the trees and flowers covered the earth. Then he took a bucket full of clear cool water and threw it into the deepest valley he could find, and so the mighty seas and oceans were formed, rolling their waves of water ever onward unto the shores of the land. Beating with a rhythm of their own eternally, and the hush of calm that their creator had given them. Then he spread his hands across the earth and bade the hills and the mountains to rise, and the land to give forth its its clean sparkling water, to form all the rivers and lakes and clear mountain streams. Then he went up to the highest mountain peak, and sat down to view the wonder of his own creation. Here he sat for a long time pondering the marvel of it all, and then suddenly he said; 'Let There Be Life!'  with outspread arms and all the living creatures of the land and the sea and the air appeared in an instant to make his magic complete. Then with great satisfaction he turned away and sighed, and followed the winding road of wisdom through the cosmos, on the road to some new miracle and magic of life eternal.
