Kara, The Lonely Falcon
by Joseph F. Girzone"As noon approached, Kara flew up into the sky. The sun was bright, radiant, more brilliant than anyone had ever seen it. The powerful falcon flew higher and higher into the blue sky. All his friends watched in utter amazement at the power and the grace and beauty of that beautiful being who had become so much a part of their life. As they watched him climb higher into the sun, an awesome occurrence unfolded before their eyes. As the golden rays of the sun touched Kara's wings, they seemed to become almost transparent, almost like the sun itself, and his whole form seemed to be transformed and absorbed into the light of the sun's rays. They couldn't believe what was unfolding before their very eyes,- perhaps, it was just a mirage, an illusion. They were overcome with a deep sense of sadness which they could not understand." A beautifully written allegory. A unique book for a pensive book report. As noon approached, Kara flew up into the sky. The sun was bright, radiant, more brilliant than anyone had ever seen it.
