“Pick a Word, Paint a Story."
Here is a story painted with SKY.
Jennifer has always been fascinated by the sky right from her childhood. As a child, she would lie on the grassy hill behind her home, tracing shapes in the clouds and dreaming of adventures beyond the horizon which her parents began wondering about her behavior.
On a faithful evening, as the sun melted into a palette of rose and amber, a shimmering bird made of light descended from the sky (heavens). It landed near where Jennifer was standing, its radiant eyes locking onto her. "You have been calling to us," said the bird. "Are you ready to see the world above? The bird asked Jennifer and she hurriedly yes I am ready to even go to the sky with you if it is possible.
Since Jennifer responded without hesitation and nodded her head. The bird lifted her onto its back and together they soared into the twilight. The Kaleidoscope star above seemed alive, whispering stories of ancient cosmic journeys and constellations Jennifer felt the wind had carried her laughter across the infinite expanse which she started feeling so worried about.
In a faraway distance from the earth, a glowing city floated among the clouds, its towers made of crystal, and its streets shimmering and glittering like a liquid sliver. Seeing how beautiful the streets are Jennifer breathed in and said to herself what a beautiful place I am here. The bird gently landed Jennifer in the beautiful street, and Jennifer was greeted by beings who lived harmoniously with the sky, which she had been admiring right from her childhood. Each of her steps leaves a trail of light and she was overwhelmed with joy.
As dawn approaches, the bird then carries Jennifer and returns her to her hill. The yearning in your heart has shown you what lies beyond you said the bird to Jennifer. "But remember, the sky which you have seen is not just above, it is within you, and always calling you to rise". Jennifer then turned and looked at the bird and asked "How big is the sky" the bird said, the sky is just like the earth has no end.
The next day, Jennifer awoke with a start, but the memories of the luminous city she experienced with the bird stayed with her, as vivid as the stars. From that day endwards, she lived with her eyes turned upward, chasing dreams as boundless as the sky. Before everything happened Jennifer wanted to become a doctor, but she later changed her mind and chose to become a scientist so she could one day have the opportunity to visit the sky again.

I believe Jeniffer would have had an easier time exploring the sky if she had been an astronomer rather than a scientist. Thank you for participating in the contest.
Thank you ma.
