Once, in the colourful Rainbow Island, there grew a transparent flower. Though all other flowers were beautiful and colourful, she was neither. No animal noticed her, no child called her beautiful. She was sad.
One day she prayed to god to change her into a colourful flower.
God said to her "O, flower, you will not be able to reverse your wish, ever again, come what may. I warn you" "I dont care, I just want to be noticed, loved. God, please grant my wish" she replied. God said "So be it."
The flower was very happy to find herself pretty and colourful. The birds and insects began to sit on her pollen, suck nectar from her and bees buzzed all around her. She felt blessed and was grateful to God.
Her happy days flew by. One bright sunny day she saw a girl coming towards her. The girl came up to her, gushed at her beauty and cut off her stem.
The flower shouted "Help! God! Help!", but in vain, In a flash, the flower remembered God's warning.
The girl then put her into a basket. She took her home and placed the colourful flower in a pretty vase. Thus ended the short life of the colourful flower.
