Hands Of The Fireball V2

When you see something bright streaking across the sky, most will say, Oh look, a falling star! I will make a wish! And so they proceed to think of some of their desires and say to themselves, I wish I had a bike like the rest of my friends or I wish I my stocks would double or I wish I had some money so that we could eat today, or wish I had a job so we could make some money....whatever the wish is, these people may think it could come true, and some do it, just in case it will work and then others do it just to do it and have fun with the customary thing to do when a falling star is seen, but there is something behind that great fireball in the sky....I see this pair of arms grabbing a bunch of stars and wadding them up like what you do with hamburger before you squash it into a patty, and then throw it on the grill, Yum! But these hands dont do this to the stars, they sling back and throw them as far as they can....then we see them and make a wish...I wonder if anyone has ever wished that the hands would throw these stars forever, so that the wishes might all come true...i say this because in this reality that we have, why do we really 'wish' upon a star...to make all our dreams come true? Maybe, but Jimminy Criquet was a cartoon bug that talked. Yeah, it sounds good when it was applied to a song, maybe good enough that it became a sort of traditional thing, almost like a superstition...but not all people believe in either superstitions or wishing on stars....but always know that those stars were flying, and flying sooo far and sooo fast, that actually making a wish is really impossible...but, can't we just wish...without having to have something happen or some event to occur...I don't know about the rest, but when I see a star I actually do want to make a wish too...why is that? Nobody ever told me, when I see a star shooting across the sky, make a wish...what I really think and hope for is that it hopefully isnt big enough to survive the entry into our atmosphere, and if or when it does it doesnt land or crash into peoples lives, or it being sooo big of one that it hits our Earth and knocks us out of our orbit and then what I'm guessing would be what I would call periodical weather...never know when it will rain or when it will snow or not......or simply just global devistation and massive loss of life.........So I wonder why the hands of the fireball elect to do this at all? Hmmm...I guess the arms have a reason for throwing them through our skies...I can only wonder why... ....as usual, just my thoughts. ....John Michael Piper *GO CHECK OUT MY COMPANY WEBSITE AT ARTIMATIONSDESIGNCOMP.COM* * www.artimationsdesigncomp.com * ***Check it out, don't check it out.....but check it out~ ArtimationsDesignComp.Com™©2011 John Michael Piper - All Rights Reserved

this is fabulous,also funny as I am reading a book about meteors,asteroids,etc that can slam into the earth and all the damage it could cause or even wipe up out,like the dinosaurs,had fun reading your text with this and as always the image is top class.

Artist Reply: *Hi Ruth! Yes, I have to admit something...I have no idea where that story came from or even what made me think to write so much on the subject, And to have a sense of humor incorporated within it...but I never question it usually, for it seems to always be just what was required for the image. Thanks again and appreciated as always Ruth!! :-)
