Bal lëétoka?

I like little stories like these.  Short, sweet, simple- and nondenominational!  I accidentally came across this on the internet today and after slightly modifying (the ending was crying for alteration, I thought, and since it's an anonymous work of internet nonpoetry I figured why not...) this is what I came up with.

A few new words here!

Three (or four) are entirely new-
"gunga", thunder-
"bajjane", butterfly
(ba + jjane; jjane = "to fold")
"sisi", whisper

and one is a new use for a word which I already had-
"úldi", miracle (formerly just magic or sorcery).

The little child whispered,

"God, speak to me"

And a meadowlark sang.

But the child did not hear.

So the child yelled,

"Goddess, speak to me!"

And the thunder rolled across the sky

But the child did not listen.

The child looked around and said,

"God, let me see you."

And a star shone brightly

But the child did not notice.

And the child shouted,

"Goddess, show me a miracle!"

And a life was born

But the child did not know.

So the child cried out in despair,

"Touch me God, and let me know you are there!"

Whereupon the God reached down

And touched the child.

But the child brushed the butterfly away.

So the child declared sadly,

"It must be that you do not exist, God."

And walked away unknowingly

While all around the world kept turning.
