The little child looked around and and said, "Goddess let me see you." And a star shone brightly. But the child did not notice. And the child shouted, "Goddess show me a miracle!" And a baby was born. But the child did not know. So the child cried out in despair, "Touch me Goddess, and let me know you are here!" Whereupon the Goddess reached down and touched the child. But the child brushed the butterfly away and walked away unknowingly.
