All things living wished, wished for a choir to sing their wishes to the Creator, even if they were only small wishes. A hymn to Him as though asking for so many things, such small things. Love for the most part, as such was craved by every thing. A love for the ones closest. Even the greated rivals held a love for one another, show they dared not to show it. And He above all loved unconditionally.
Fragile voices echoed through the air, singing softly in a long ancient and forgotten language, but it was in the tone that everything and every one understood it.
'We sing so that we should not die,
but continue to live
in His grace.
We sing praise
to Him
that gave us all life.
We only wish He hears us
and knows that we ask
only the smallest thing.
Dear God. Grant us
The strength to live.
Grant us the love
That you so freely give.
Grant us this life
So that we may go on.
Grant us today
And tomorrow
And we give back to you
The strength to continue.
We love as you love.
We fight as you fight.
Yet we cannot do it alone.
We need your hand
Dear God.
To guide us, and lead the way.
And down this long path.
We will see it to the end.
Together.'

Ebbing tides struck the beach with a loving caress. The brush of water on the sand and the washing sound that sang so soothingly through the air.
A dolphin poked it's head out of the water toward the beach, crooning.
A rat looked out at the dolphin, then toward the land, squeeling.
A wolf ran headlong through a field of golden dying grass, stopping to raise its head and howl toward the rising moon.
A ferret stopped to listen, then headed toward a small hill, squeeking out across the grassy plain.
A cat perked an ear and raised its head from a bowl of cream, then mewed.
A great falcon watched the cat from the sky, then screamed its challenge out through the air.
A fox rose its head from its burrow, then yipped its cry out into the forest.
There a dragon stood, its head risen high in the air, wings full spread in defiance of what the future would bring. Word from water to land to air spread like wild fire. A choir of voices reaching to the very heart of the dragon.
Zenra roared out a plee across the barriers of reality, reaching every living thing that was connected to her, every forgotten on the good world of Terra and perhaps beyond.
We sing and pray so that we may -live-.
