"Thank you!!"?, a blue clay dough

"Thank you!!", a blue clay dough

A blue clay dough was lying on a table. No kid was paying attention to the playdough and they were after the red cars and pink dolls. Clay dough didn't know what should be done because it didn't know how to be of joy to the kids. It accepted the fact that no one wants it and that it shall forever remain where it is or thrown to the bin when its color fades. The teacher came along to see the idle blue dough on the table, took it in his hands, and started forming shapes. The kids were startled at first and then they came closer to the teacher to watch clay dough form shapes. Since the blue dough was never been used it was stiff and hard at first then realized that it was forming something better and let the teacher mould it. Now it was a beautiful blue bear. The pairs of little eyes fixed on the dough in the teacher's hands sparkled and the kids laughed and screamed of joy. The blue clay suddenly found itself being the joy. The teacher changed the blue bear into a blue flower. Now the kids wanted to try it. Now the blue clay dough is not just dough but anything it wanted to be. The teacher and the kids moulded it to all the pretty shapes ever known. And as we are talking the blue clay dough is being made into something new. Not really sure what but definitely something better.
