Thus runs the world away.

The world tiptoed up to Venus’ door and rang her doorbell. The planet’s gravity was strong but the world had its own gravity so it could sneak in, ring the doorbell and then make a break for it. The world ran to hide in the cloud cover nearby – ones that really looked like bushes. It laughed and laughed when Venus opened the door, and looked around.
“Hello?” she asked, “Is that Earth again? You and Mercury, always joking around.”
The world laughed all the way back into its own orbit.
