Once upon the time there was a super sweet flower with super cute dimples growing in the shadow of Supersunflower, snatching some limelight here and there, secretly budding and slowly gathering more and more color within still closed petals. One day she was asked by a pretty cool but dreadfully starcolor depleted mix of snow and water to be the Silver Star* in their latest production of the legendary Elisabeth composition. The Silver Star was an endangered, heavily protected, precious wildflower, and only after much begging and payment of a huge security deposit in pure gold the flowers reluctantly agreed to help and lend out their shy, sweet and cute flower to the friends in need.
Our super cutely dimpled flower really enjoyed growing up in the cuddly warmth between all the colorful flowers, and all the colorful flowers loved their little shy friend, and it was with many tears that they eventually parted.
But once the Silver Star had experienced water's freshness and found itself gently covered with cool but warming snow, it started to feel at home. All the shiny little snow stars glistened in the sunlight and slowly retreated when the sun grew stronger and the little Silver Star started to lift its head and turned to the sun. Droplets of water pearled from its petals as they opened and its buds turned into beautiful blossoms.
The flowers watched with jealousy what the snow and water had done to their precious treasure and demanded it back after one year's time, as this was the agreed loan period.
But the water and the snow refused to let go off their precious Silver Star. And after the year was over the Silver Star also had been enthralled by the abundance of water and cool warmth of snow and did not want to leave its shiny newfound home.
Now it was the flowers' turn to beg, and they reminded snow and water of the huge security deposit in pure gold. But snow and water had learned that the treasure they had gotten hold of could not be measured in worldly goods and told the flowers to keep the gold - they would keep the Silver Star.
During the year that our Silver Star had been absent, the flowers had befallen a bitter tragedy: They had lost their Supersunflower to harsh, cold reality. All the flowers were very sad and many cried. When they learned that they had also been robbed of one of their most precious, promising, shining wildflowers, they knew they were facing a time of dark, lightless night.
But flowers cannot survive without light, and while the stars had given them one of their own, its light was still not bright enough. Desperately they tried to find more light, but the stars could not afford to give away another one of their own and in the cosmos every light was unreachably far away.
So the flowers turned to the moon and asked for some light to guide them through the night. But the moon also had trouble keeping itself together. Never-ending cycles of losing and gaining had made it very stingy and unwilling to voluntarily share any of its light. The flowers hung their heads and were about to lose all hope when they suddenly remembered the huge amount of gold deposit from the treacherous snow and water. Upon seeing the wealth the moon quickly decided that giving one quarter to the flowers would not affect its shininess too much.
With the gold the moon bought some shiny bling for its remaining three quarters so they could shine brighter and compensate for the fourth's absence.
