Here is my take @xpilar,
Between Earth and the Sky there is a sandy place, warmest place in terms of weather; darkness and frightening. Once a space ship entered in this zone and flames of fire took the spaceship in there surrounding. Suddenly, clouds came from nowhere and covered the whole sky to make the air cool. Yes, those clouds on the sky are the symbol of life for the people inside the space ship. This way, clouds saved the life of the spaceship and in a gentle way spaceship gone into its planet safely :)
Hope so, you liked my imagination ;)
