White Blossom
"Daddy! Why do stars fall?" curious girl, tucked under her father's shoulder, sought for an answer.

It's hard to answer simple questions, isn't it. Moreover, it's harder to make a child understand. After a laborious thought, "because, they get bored of staying there forever", he responded.

"Is it?", she exclaimed, "then, where do they like to go?"

"They just like to wander, like birds", dad replied.

"But, birds do return Daddy, don't they?", she claimed.

"But, few can't make it, dear!", he replied sadly. "Every flower that fades, will bloom again. But, exceptions exist. I call it "WHITE BLOSSOM".

"What do you mean, Papa?" she worried.

He kissed on her forehead, "it means, they can't fade again", he stopped.
