Color Spill (a story)


Once upon a time, all of the pots of light just sat there. 
Arranged in neat rows, they just sat there. 
Nothing ever happened. 
Long ago, so long ago that no one could remember, the real sky had been domed over. 
It was always dark.

One day, one of the pots of light decided to do something. 
It tipped over! 

The beautiful colors of the light began to spill out! 
The other pots of light looked on, and then they started to shine and spill out too.

Suddenly the false dome of the sky crashed open, revealing the real sky, which was full of stars. 

A swarm of artists color palettes flew in through the new hole in the sky dome, attracted to the beautiful colors of the light.

Now, everyone realized that we all have these beautiful colors.

And from that day on, nothing was ever the same again.

I wonder what we will make with our colors?
