illphated
The lone heron had always known the pond—the way the water rippled in the wind, the silver fish that darted below, the reeds that whispered secrets. But today, the pond felt empty.
With a deep breath, the heron spread its wings and took flight, gliding beyond the familiar, past the trees, until it landed in a place unlike any it had known—a wild, blooming garden.
Here, golden butterflies danced in the air, petals swayed in shades of violet and crimson, and ripe berries glistened in the morning light. The heron stepped forward, finding not fish, but something unexpected—soft earth beneath its feet, sweet scents in the breeze, and a feeling of wonder it had never known.
Perhaps the pond wasn’t the only place to belong.
