“They don’t find it,” I said. “But what they are looking for can be found in one rose or in a little water.”
“Yes, that’s true,” I said. And the little prince added, “But the eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart.”
I finished drinking water. I could breathe well now. The sand at sunrise is the colour of honey.
And that colour was making me happy, too. So I didn’t understand why I felt so sad.
“Don’t forget about your promise,” said the little prince when he sat down next to me.
“What promise?” “You know, a fence which can protect my flower from my sheep. I am responsible for this flower.”
I took my pictures out of my pocket. The little prince looked at them, and he laughed when he saw the baobabs.
“Your baobabs look like cabbages.” “Oh!” I was so proud of my baobabs.
“Your fox, his ears, they look like horns, and they are too long!” And he laughed again.
“You aren’t fair, little prince,” I said, “I didn’t know how to draw anything,
only snakes from the outside and snakes from the inside.”
“Oh, it’s alright,” he said, “children will understand.”
