He knew the city lived downtown, right there in every gritty detail. But he saw beyond shiny skyscrapers and concrete jungles, and understood others yearned for similar sprees.
So he picked up a shovel, seeded soil with a special touch, and opened the flower market. One glance away from a blue sky, one glitch away from a garden escape.
Curious neighbors arrived, and with each flower the community found themselves transported to a world of wonder. A magical place whose sweet aroma filled their senses, and silky petals graced their touch.
A vast earth to relax and roam free with carefree spirit, where warm sun rays hit their faces and vibrant colors danced their realities of city life into a wholesome return to Eden.
