44624 how sun and moon created the earth key

A long, long time ago there was only the blue sky,
the sun and the moon, who slept there like in a
canopy bed. One day the sun and the moon woke
up and looked around. But there was not much to
see. The sun shone with her big light on the
moon, and the moon shone with his little light on
the sun. There was nothing else they could
illuminate. They were bored.
"What shall we do?" asked the sun. "Let´s go back to sleep"
answered the moon. But the sun had a better idea. "We create
the earth." she suggested. "But how?" asked the moon. "We have
no hands and no feet." "Then let´s do it somehow." answered the
sun. And they actually succeeded in creating the world - somehow.
Otherwise earth would not be here.

earth.

They created the water, the weather, the mountains, the trees,
the vegetables, the fruits and the animals. Animals with two, four,
six or eight legs. The sun made the summer flowers and the moon
made the autumn leaves. After some time they were tired, but
the earth was far from being finished.
After a long sleep, they stood up again and created man with two
hands and two legs. "People should be our helpers," said the sun.
And so it happened.
People built

bridges and tunnels, railways and highways. They

built houses and towers. Sun and moon created the pets and the
birds. Sun and moon created the herbs and the sand, people made

herbal tea and sandglasses. It was a good teamwork. People
planted vegetables and crops and the sun gave her light and her
heat, so that the plants could grow.
When people were asleep, the moon shone on the
world, so it was not too dark during night.
Sun and moon illuminated the world and enjoyed
the wonderful things that people made.
That´s how the earth was created. Out of
boredom and because a large and a small light
