noodling around

change.

It was afternoon.
The sun was high, birds were chirping, the sky as blue as could be.
And then...  There was a child, among the many many people awake at this hour.
She was in her backyard sitting on a small, wooden latter against a big, overgrown tree.  The leaves drifted against the wind ever slightly, you would have to carefully watch if you wanted to see.
The sun struggled to peek through the forest of branches and leaves, striving to shine its light.
As she sat, feeling the calm wind brush against her skin, listening to the birds calm, melodic voice, have the sun's warmth gently wash over her- she thought.
She thought of all the people she met and all the people she would meet in a time's come.
She thought of the memories shared and the mistakes already made.
Wondering just what would happen if she did something else.
And as those thoughts grew and grew...
The sun fell drowsy.
Time ticked away, sky's turning orange, red, pink, purple, yellow.
The clouds began forming in the sky.  Everything was changing from what it was.
Except...  The little girl.
She stayed underneath the overgrown tree, not a care in the world, for a long...
...long time...
Until, someone came into her little world.
Her world of sunshine and blizzards that continuously came and went.
This person somehow breached all of the gates in the way, unlocked the one thing stopping everyone from seeing her own views.
She was shocked nonetheless, but somehow filled with a warm tingling sensation of joy she's never felt before.... And soon-
One..
By
One...
More people came in.  What would happen in the future is still unknown, but it is for sure the beginning of a new story.
