I've heard that story before, but not presented in a way so beautiful and touching in a way that the message sinks in. Nicely written.

Nice storyline, good philosophy, delievered in a not very contemporary poetry format.Could however make a good children's poem if rythms, rymes and correct spellings are inserted appropriately. Nice attempt though. Keep trying.
