Axel Harris watched the ground as it rushed towards him. his life flashed before his eyes in his final moments.

-----

A boy of no more than five playing on his family's farm watches the birds take flight into the sunset, a bright mind filled with a dream to fly.

a boy is now a teenager, his accomplishments much greater than his peer's works on his family's crop plane, oil and grease cover his hands and clothes, his brows furrowed in concentration dripping with the sweat of exertion.

A teenager is now a young man, his education has now reached its end as he and hundreds of others throw up their hats in celebration.

A young man joining a big Aerobotics company thinks his dreams are fulfilled, but as his time there ticks by, he finds himself more anxious that something is missing.

A young man is no longer young, his heart has found love and his love has blessed him with children. but still, he feels his dreams are unfulfilled.

A man brings his family home, to the place of his childhood where his dream first started. They live and grow happily in and around its fields and he teaches his children of the things he loves.

A man feels empty and the bottle has his heart. his mind is with his wife who lay in the ground. his children old enough now to no longer live with him. A man is alone.

Consumed by time a man's feeling fade, he picks up his tools and proceeds to occupy his hands. he once again feels young.

The creation of an old man lay in front of him, a plane unlike any other. he feels his blood pumping as he gets in and starts the engine.

In the sky, an old man flies. His dream was fulfilled and his emotions were high. but a green light flashes and his motor dies. and so he falls to meet his wife.

Axel Harris has died he knows this much, as he floats above the crash site of his invention, A voice fills the earth before he feels the call, and his soul that is at peace vanishes with it.
