- Clearing in the sky
The story Clearing in the sky' throws light on the dignity of labour. It points out that hard work is the key to success in life. It is a life of hardwork and labour which tend beauty and grace to man's character. The clearing in the sky on the top was a beautiful farm which had been cleared of trees. It was very high. It seemed to touch the sky. It was a little less than an acre fenced around by wire. The old man grew vegetables like potatoes, tomatoes and yams in it.
