Falling From The Sky
In the Arctic North, a flock of snow geese were all aflutter. It was time for them to fly south. They gracefully ascended on the Arctic winds.
The birds flew through the ribbons of primary-colored lights adorning the vast sky.
Further south, a very strange sight appeared above them. Falling through the sky, a human with man-made wings was flailing his arms as a flurry of feathers erupted in all directions.
A group of the geese flew to the man, clutched the wooden wing frames, and escorted him gently to the ground.
"May Zeus reward your kindness," said the man.
