The little man on the cloud

In a lovely land where the shone and the wine was always good, a little man sat on a fluffy cloud. His name was bilingual and he was content in the knowledge that up on his cloud all the people down below could watch him with awe. He wasn't very different to you or me. He spoke more than one language ( 2 to be precise).

Down below everyone would spend hours gazing at bilingual and wishing they were him.

They would spend hours (and quite a bit of money) trying to catch the cloud and with it the little man who sat contentedly upon it. Alas they always seemed to fail and could never quite reach that cloud nor the man bilingual.

One day, after a particularly bad storm, the cloud disappeared and bilingual came crashing down to earth (causing a nasty bump on the head). Everyone crowded around to finally touch this godlike creature that they had admired for so long.

After a few minutes gawping at the sorry creature a brave little girl said hello and to everyones amazement bilingual quickly said hello back.

Everyone realized that bilingual was no god or unreachable being but the same as everyone else ( ok, he was desparately handsome and had a rockin hairdo). And they all lived happily bilingual after.
