Night is soft, quiet, speaking in layered moonlight.
Listen.
She whispers through trees, between branches.
Do not be afraid. You are not alone…
Beautiful darkness soothes us even though she knows it is her that we fear.
Written for the hurricane relief flash fiction challenge over at Lemon Shark. I’ve just raised the first $1. π See? That was easy. Hope you join in.
