Satisfaction filled her lungs as she took a deep breath. And she knew, It had left. She couldn’t help smiling, despite the lack of sleep. A sparkle of energy ran down her spine. She had journeyed across with the moon, along the horizon and over high towers and hills and then dropping back down the other side of earth. She rose with the bold orange sun, as sunlight streamed through the gap in the window. The air smelled of fresh flowers now as the lingering scent of night blooming faded away. She had whispered tales of the dark with owls and sang in praise of dawn with sparrows.
