A competition.
Last year at about this time,
had a competition
to see who could write
the most beautiful song
to be sung every morning in heaven
for the next thousand years.
For God is a great lover of music,
and prefers to be woken up each
day by a song.
He is lucky,
for there are no better singers
than his angels.
One of these angels is my friend,
and when we were walking together
one evening after to dinner,
she told me all of this and sighed that she could
not think of a song to write.
So I quickly jotted something down
and gave it to her to use
as her own invention in the contest.
A year later I saw her again,
and she told me that God had
chosen someone else's music
as the winner.
There is nothing to be sorry for, I said,
taking her hand,
for the Creator Himself has heard my music,
and so you have given me
the greatest gift of all,
a thoughtful listener,
even one who rejects me.
This I prefer even to careless ears
who may love me."
And with that, the angel spread her wings
above the cornfield.
How did you like the song?
