Lost in A Sea of Green

Silence and wandering had become two of Serene's favorite past times. Between listening to the sounds of nature and constantly being on the move, every day brought with it a new adventure. Something new to see, to experience, to learn from and to grow from. Today brought with it something a bit more troubling, but exciting all the same. She had been doing what she does best, wandering, only this time she happened to wander into some very tricky tall grass. In fact, as she peered out across the terrain, she found in nearly every direction, there was more and more tall grass. Naturally, she shrunk down beneath the surface and weaved her way through the blades like a young pup; giggling and dashing about, loving the way the blades caressed her body as she went.

But as the day dragged on it was becoming more apparent that Serene was either lost in an eternity of tall grass, or she was going in circles. It didn't help that every time the breeze blew across the fields, it made her think she wasn't alone. Her anxiety was spiking, and with the hot sun beating down on her back, her mouth was starting to get increasingly dry. If only there was a place to find shade, or even a small stream to lap up, she could replenish her strength and find her way out of this grass! Finally, with a defeated huff, the sandy female plopped down in the field, laying on her side in hopes of sleeping out the day and continue her journey during the twilight hours.
