Boy and the Box, Aidan Park

The boy lived in a box.
It was cold outside, but kept the boy warm.
It was dark outside, but kept the boy safe.
It was raining outside, but kept the boy dry.
The box sheltered him until the cold, the dark, and the rain were gone.
And then the boy left.
Many years later, a man returned to the corner the box used to be.
He smiled warmly at the faded box.
“Thank you.”
