A Story
The Hungry
Cloud and the Magic Feast
Once upon
a time, in a lush green village nestled between rolling hills, there lived a
kind-hearted girl named Mira. Mira loved to help her mother cook delicious
meals for the villagers. One day, the village decided to throw a grand feast to
celebrate the harvest. Everyone worked together to prepare mountains of
food—steaming rice, spicy curries, sweet desserts, and juicy fruits.
But when
the feast began, something strange happened. A tiny, grumpy cloud named Golu
floated down from the sky. Golu was no ordinary cloud—he was always hungry! He
had heard about the feast and wanted to taste everything.
The
villagers welcomed Golu and offered him a plate of food. But no matter how much
he ate, his hunger grew. He gobbled up the rice, slurped the curries, and even
swallowed the desserts whole! Soon, the mountain of food disappeared, and
Golu’s belly grew as round as the moon.
Mira,
curious and brave, approached Golu. "Why are you so hungry, little
cloud?" she asked.
Golu
sighed. "I’m a magic cloud, but I’ve lost my sparkle. The only way to feel
full is to eat, but nothing ever satisfies me."
Mira
thought for a moment and said, "Maybe you’re not hungry for food. Maybe
you’re hungry for something else—like joy!"
She took
Golu to the village square, where children were laughing and playing. Golu
watched as they danced, sang, and shared stories. Slowly, his grumpy frown
turned into a smile. For the first time, he felt full—not with food, but with
happiness.
From that
day on, Golu became the village’s favorite cloud. He brought rain for the
crops, shade for the farmers, and even rainbow arches after storms. And
whenever he felt hungry, he remembered Mira’s words and joined the children in
their games.
The
villagers never forgot the day a hungry cloud taught them that the best feast
is the one shared with love and laughter.
And so,
Golu and the villagers lived happily ever after, under a sky filled with magic
and joy.
