021: Not Going Home

[livingmyths]

I was just heading home when I read that there had been an attack in the forest and everyone should be careful, so I thought maybe I better not go home.

Just telling people so no one will be worried. I'll stay in the Library or maybe up on the roof so I'm still with the stars.

I found a dead hummingbird today. It kind of makes me worried because hummingbirds are sort of magical, you know? They bring open hearts and joy and help create families and the death of one - well that kind of suggests sadness and grief and the closing off of hearts and that Bad Things are coming.

I set it out carefully on a bed of leaves and left a red flower by it so it would be comfortable as it moves on and sang to it, but I still feel sad.

Were you the same size as the butterflies?

Sometimes.

But sometimes I was just me-sized and they flew around me like a living rainbow of color.

That sounds like a wonderful dream to have.

Oh, it was!

I always hope I'll dream it again sometime.

Or that it would really happen.

But don't worry, I know it wasn't real!

I hope that you can dream it again soon too.

Wouldn't it be funny if someday it came real? Like on one of the good curse days?

I'd love that!

I'd like to see it if it does come true.

Oh, I'd be sure to tell you!

That's for sure!
