and yet, it lingered as if it had always been part ‘of’ ‘the’ wind. Underneath ‘the’ canopy ‘of’ a
bewildered moon, shadows whispered to’ ‘the’ stars, sharing secrets not meant for ‘the’ daylight,
crafting stories spun ‘from’ ‘the’ fabric ‘of’ ‘the’ fantastical and ‘the’ mundane, intertwined in an
endless waltz ‘of’ ‘the’ beautifully absurd.
