| One night, I was sitting by the fire in my little house. When I heard a noise from my front door. Slowly I approached the door and opened it. At first all I could see was a pair of blue-green eyes. The light from inside shone on sandy colored fur. "It's about time you open the door", replied the creature. "Moon Dancer!", I said surprised. We sat by the fire talking for hours. She told me of her many adventures that she had out on her own. One story was how is ended up in a giant thorn patch while she was hunting a deer. I laughed, "I can see it was a grand adventure and a failed hunt." "I don't see what is so funny about it", Dancer replied with a bit of a growl. "Yes it is. You still have some thorns and twigs on your coat", I said. We spent the rest of the night cleaning her coat of debris and chatting. We finaly fell a sleep with the first light of dawn. |
