This happened many many summers ago.
There was a young flower in the desert where all was dry
and sad looking...It was growing by itself...enjoying
every day...and saying to the sun "When shall I be
grown up"? And the sun would say "Be patient"---Each
time I touch you,you grow a little"...And she was
so pleased.Because she would have a chance to bring beauty
to this corner of sand...And this is all she wanted to
do---bring a little bit of beauty to this world.

| One day the hunter came
by---and stepped on her.---She was going to die---and she
felt so sad.Not because she was dying ---but because she
would not have a chance to bring a little bit of beauty
to this corner of the desert.
The great spirit saw her, and was listening.---Indeed,he
said ...She should be living...And he reached down and touched
her---and gave her life.
And she grew up to be a beautiful flower...and this corner
of the desert became so beautiful because of her.
