In a world where clouds wore hats, and the sun unearthed poetry from its golden depths, there existed a path. This path, made of whispers and forgotten dreams, lay tethered between the known horizons and the myriad exhalations of the sky.
Once, I met a cloud named Nimbus, a philosopher beneath its fluff. "Does the wind sing songs of the sea, or does it merely carry echoes of storms once lived?" Nimbus pondered aloud, its voice a gentle thunder across the firmament.
Grains of time slipped through fingers like sand, each one a moment lost in translation. I dreamt of wandering with Nimbus, tracing arcs through vaporous realms untouched by the hands of mortals. The clouds promised realms where laughter was currency, and every sigh a passage to hidden lands.
Meanwhile, the sun wrote letters to the stars, and the world below continued its ceaseless dance. A small bird, no bigger than a whisper itself, perched on my shoulder, its feathers adorned with the hues of twilight. "Follow?" it chirped, a single note ringing clear like a bell's song at dusk.
Perhaps there are places still unmarked on maps untold. Places where laughter bounces off the edges of reason, and absurdity is a neighborly companion. The sky's invitation lingered sweetly as I stepped forward, one tentative mark upon the ever-shifting canvas above.
