The wisdom of a child

“I think water should cost more”, said the young rainmaker. 

“If you leave the tap running… like 5 cents.”

I raised access, but I knew full well her wisdom and affirmed her.

“I think we’ll go back to caves”, she said.

I clarified - 

People living in caves.

The apocalypse. Then, people living in caves, again.

I knew her wisdom.

And I knew what she’d meant when she said “next time”.

“Arh…so it’s all in a cycle, a circle!”, I replied.

“The best things are.”

And added, “I think it will come from the sky”.
