In a lively Indian village nestled between lush green fields and colorful markets, there lived a curious parrot named Piku. One bright morning, Piku noticed the sky was painted with swirling shades of pink, orange, and purple—like a giant, magical mural. Intrigued, Piku fluttered up to a wise old peacock named Moti, who told him that the sky was a special canvas painted by the clouds and the setting sun. But Piku wondered, 'What if I could add my own colors to the sky?' Filled with excitement and a tiny hint of worry, Piku decided to find a way to make the sky even more beautiful, dreaming of adventures beyond the village clouds.

That night, Piku dreamt of flying high above the village, where he could see the entire world spread out like a giant, colorful canvas. He imagined dipping his wings into the sunset’s fiery reds and golden yellows, then splashing those colors across the sky. When he awoke, Piku felt a spark of determination. 'If I can’t paint the sky myself,' he thought, 'maybe I can find the magic that makes the sky so beautiful.' With a flutter of his wings, he set out on a tiny adventure to discover the secret behind the painted sky, eager to bring a little of that magic back home.

The next morning, Piku spotted a flock of playful, fluffy clouds drifting lazily across the sky. They looked like giant cotton candies, each with a unique shape—some shaped like elephants, others like peacocks. Piku decided to chase after them, hoping to catch a piece of their magic. As he fluttered and swooped, the clouds playfully scattered, forming shapes that told stories of India’s festivals, like Diwali lamps and Holi splashes of color. Piku realized that the clouds carried the colors of joy and celebration, and that the sky’s beauty came from the happiness of everyone below. With a happy chirp, he understood that he didn’t need to paint the sky—he just needed to share its magic.

At last, Piku understood that the sky’s true magic wasn’t just in colors or clouds, but in the happiness and celebrations of the people below. The vibrant festivals, the laughter, and the love they shared painted the sky every day. Piku fluttered back to his village, his heart full of joy. From that day on, he told everyone that the real magic was in sharing kindness and joy, making the sky brighter in their hearts and in the world. And whenever the sunset painted the sky with brilliant colors, Piku would chirp happily, knowing he carried a piece of that magic inside him.
