Cloud Mushroom:

Ladies! Ladies and gentlemen! Come! Feast your spectacles and hearts upon the giant white mushroom of cloud. 

*There it stands. In the center of a giant circus stadium, towering up, up, up and into the sky like a piercing knife.* 

Madames et monsieurs, this specimen is neither mushroom nor cloud. In point of fact, it is made from the love around the world. You see, it wanes and ebbs like the ocean, relating to the moon. In times of peace, it amasses into the clouds. But, in times of war, it sinks into the ocean! 

*A little boy in the audience shouted out, 'can ya eat it?!'* 

No, no no, madames et monsieurs, vous ne le pouvez pas manger. At this very instant, we can witness the mushroom as it towers up into the sky. But! But! What should happen if a young and beautiful couple were to enter and stand next to the mushroom and express their agape? 

*The same little boy shouted out, asking, 'what if they kissed?!' There was hysterical laughter in the crowd.* 

I would like to choose two lucky couples from our audience tonight to join us on stage. You! And you two! 

*The two handsome couples made their way down to the stage. They were positioned in front of the mushroom.* 

The crowd begins to chant: kiss! Kiss! Kiss! 

*Both couples take each other's hands, gently closing their eyes and lay their lower lips onto their mates'.* 

Madames et monsieur's! Regardez! 

*The mushroom sinks like a stone, creating a space in the ground but then recoils, skyrocketing into the sky!* 

Ladies and gentlemen, some say, it is Jehovah's very heart on the earth. Others say that He gave it to us to show us that love is so valuable. 

*The same little boy from the audience shouts, 'it sure shows the value of a heartfelt and passionate kiss!' He begins to applaud. And all the rest join in.

Family Division:

Once upon a time, there was a family. This family was an ordinary family. A mother, a father and a couple of children. They were ordinary. That was until the birth of their third child, a son. The parents were not expecting to have another child so soon. And since they could not really afford this child, an extra mouth to feed, they resented him. They would constantly mistreat him and neglect him. And the family’s other two children imitated their parent’s hostility towards this child. The family watched with resentment as the young child grew, seemingly unaffected by this constant rejection and mistreatment. The child would simply glance over every instance of abuse that they would force in his direction. Instead, he seemed far more fascinated with the toys of his brother and sister. His parents never bought him toys. But every opportunity he had he would seek something productive to do. This child seemed to be growing, maturing much faster than any other normal child. He was walking ...

Tattered Hole

There was once a tattered little hole on a piece of fabric. Tattered hole didn't have much of a view seeing how he was only a small hole. From his perspective, every so often, he would have a front row seat to people's knees and, he gathered that whatever creature he was a part of was always walking away from things. He had resolved to being a less important creature, one who simply lived on another bigger creature. He was, after all, just a humble and tattered hole. On top of that, one thing he had gathered was that whatever the fabric was being used for, he often seemed to have been faced up against something, pressed up tight against something or other. Until, one day, tattered hole was caught on something terribly sharp. This caused him to grow nearly three times his original size! Every so often, tattered hole would hear voices. He wouldn't know what they meant even if he had heard them clearly. After the voices spoke, the fabric on which he existed was handed over to ...

Nocturnal Marsupial:

Once, there was a nocturnal marsupial. You may ask, well this is not a normal bed time story, nor delightful tucking in. I'd say think again. For in fact, this nocturnal marsupial was quite an adept sleeper. You see, he would sleep all the day long. All the day long! And only at night would he peek open his eyes and stretch out his little limbs with all of his might. But what sort of creature seeks to awaken only in the dark?! For what is there happening during the night except sleep and dwindling of light and crickets and peepers playing their musical delight? Well, this nocturnal marsupial was in fact a very special marsupial. He was the one to lead all young boys and girls to a place of sleep. To a place of dreams and wonders. Nocturnal marsupial was responsible for the nudging of the consciousness, that lingering yet disappearing  feeling of alertness. Many young boys and girls would swear that right before their sleep, right in that momentary lapse of reason, where all seemed ...
