The Flight Of An Eagle

PLEASE TELL ME IF YOU LIKE IT OR NOT!!!!



Footsteps crunched in the forest. At the noise of this intruder, all animals fled silently to safety in the deeper regions of the forest. Shotgun in view, the hunter searched for his next victim among the dense forest undergrowth.
Above, a sole eagle soared silently, also in search of its prey. As one golden eye focused on the hunter, the other spotted a small white object on the ground below. Swift and silent, the eagle glided towards its prey.

Underneath, a small white mouse sat on a rock eating a berry it had found. This mouse had been kicked out of his litter, and so, had no-one to warn him of the predator above. SWOOP! The mouse was whipped out of sight by two sharp claws. The mouse's frantic heat went into overdrive in panic. The eagle did a gigantic swoop. Unable to keep up, the heart stopped and the mouse went limp. The eagle screeched in triumph and did another loop to celebrate his victory.

Below the hunter heard the screech. Grasping the shotgun, the hunter took an aim and fired. He smiled with pleasure as the thought of all the money he could get, flashed through his mind as the small object catapulted to the ground and landed with a loud THUMP.

A week later, a giant crowd lined up in a queue to see the new exhibit to the Nature part of the museum. The people slowly trickled past the exhibit inside a glass display case with amazement and wonder. Soon, at the end of the day, the security guard closed the iron bars on the door that casted shadows on the new exhibit.

Inside, a stuffed eagle stood there forlornly, staring into empty space. The eagle thought of the morsels of delicious food he could have been having and the time he could have spent looking for a mate. Finally, the freedom of soaring above the clouds and the feeling the wind on his feathery face. At this thought, a single tear emerged from a golden eye and slowly made its way down to the wooden case of the floor below.
