“Precious Cargo”

The caravan of refugees loaded up their most prized possessions and set out to transport themselves and their riches. There were many things that shone and sparkled along the way, but nothing so valuable as what they already carried. Focused and determined , but with enough sense to create new stories along the way, they journeyed to a better places.
