Hello there,

This is a short story about a magical bed of clouds.

Are you coming with me?

Lie down in your bed or on the sofa and close your eyes.

Don't worry,

It's just for a short moment.

Or you can keep your eyes open if you prefer.

Lay a hand or both hands on your belly and feel how it moves when you breathe.

Now imagine that you're outside,

In your garden or in a park,

It doesn't matter where.

Maybe you can pick a place that you really like a lot.

Imagine you are in this special place outside and you're walking a little.

Suddenly you notice a wonderful magical staircase.

It looks so great,

You absolutely love the colors.

And the sparkles make it look really magical.

You are wondering where the staircase is leading to and you decide to take a look.

You walk to the staircase and you start moving up.

Step by step you get higher on the stairs.

With every step you feel happier.

This staircase is really magical.

Higher and higher you go,

Coming closer and closer to the clouds.

And then you are going through the clouds,

Until you are above the clouds.

Wow,

They are so soft.

And somehow you just know you can walk on the clouds.

And you do so.

Walking on the clouds isn't that easy,

As they are so soft.

But you have lots of fun falling down and getting up.

Because you are not hurting yourself and you are feeling so happy here on the clouds.

After trying to walk on the clouds for a while,

You get tired.

You lie down on the clouds to take a short nap.

As soon as you are lying on the clouds,

You feel that you are getting sleepy.

You are feeling happy and sleepy.

Lying there on the soft,

Soft clouds,

Thinking about all the fun you just had,

You feel that you become sleepier and sleepier.

Your eyes are closing.

And then,

On these soft,

Magical clouds,

You fall asleep.

After a while,

When you wake up,

You are back in the garden,

Or park,

Or wherever you started this little magical adventure.

You don't see the staircase anymore.

But that's okay.

You know it was there.

And you know you've been there,

Up above the clouds.

And now it's time to come back to the place where you are lying down,

Listening to this story.

Maybe you are going to sleep now.

In that case,

I wish you sweet dreams.

Maybe about a magical staircase,

Or another magical dream.
