This is a longer story than I would usually blog so I will try to make it worth your read, since it is such a great story! It brought many laughs and my saddness. My friends Jazon, Kristen, and Ruth came to my apartment yesterday and we were just chillen when I suggested we go for a spin in Jazmine (my new car) since Jazon hadn't really seen my car or had a ride. So we all went for a wonderfully fun Sunday drive. We drove up to the Provo Temple where Jazon and I traded seats so he could drive. We drove all around the neighborhoods up by the Temple and saw all the huge and beautiful homes that are up there. As we were driving the following dialoge took place.... ( please enjoy)
Kenzie: OH MY GOSH! LOOK AT THE BIRD!! PULL OVER!!! QUICK!!!!
Jazon: What?! WHAT?!
Kenzie: That hawk is killing that bird! It just grabbed in while they were flying! STOP bird STOOOPPP! ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW!!! LET ME OUT!!!
(Kenzie reaches over Jazon to unlock the window and rolls down her window yelling)
Kenzie: STOP! GET AWAY! STOP, STOP!!
(Kenzie jumps out of the car to try and chase the hawk away Kristen, Ruth, Jazon yelling at Kenzie to get back in the car while trying to get a video on their phones of the hawk killing the magpie)
Jazon: Dear Dear Makenzie get back in the car..!
(Mean while magpie got away for a moment but alas the hawk gets it again.. That was the last flight the poor magpie had... trying to escape the grasp of a mean ole' hawk)
Ruth: Look at all the feathers!
(Kenzie turns around, looks and starts picking up the feathers while Jazon starts taking pictures of Kenzie picking them up)
(people walk out onto their porch.. looking curiously at the strange girl picking up feathers off of their lawn...wondering what in the world is going on)
Jazon: Sweet Makenzie get back in the car!
Ruth and Kristen: Kenzie get back in the car!
Jazon: Dear sweet Kenzie get back in the car... come on.. PLEASE!
(Kenzie ignoring them telling the curious homeowners what just happened on their very lawn.. a tragic tale!)
Jazon, Ruth, Kristen: Kenzie get back in the CAR! We HAVE to go! Come on! Leave the people alone!
(Kenzie gets in the car as she tells the people to go to their backyard and check on the magpie)
(They all drive away)
Kristen: The chihuahua got the magpie too!
Kenzie: NOOOOOO!!!!!
(They all drive away laughing at Kenzie as she sits silently in the car holding the feathers of the deceased magpie and Jazon takes a picture)
you see Makenzie, it's the circle of life, and it moves us all. Through despair and hope, through faith and love. Till we find our place on the path unwinding in the circle... The Circle of Life.
ReplyDeleteHawks' gotta eat. Consider yourself fortunate that you had the privilege of witnessing the beauty of nature being naturific. And you totally should have punted that chihuahua. I hate small dogs.
