Drabble

“It should fit.” she said. But it did not, so she threw it away.

There was light, which divided night and day.

There was the sun and the moon.

There was land, and there was water.

There was life.

There was a man, and there was also a woman.

She rested, but found it hard to sleep. So she retrieved it, and pondered. It was a wonder, the best ever created. But it did not fit. So again she threw it away.

And they would spend all of their lives searching for it. But never would it be found.
