Story #6 (Hardly a story; it’s really just a description. The only way it is going to take up an acceptable amount of space on the page is because of this absurdly long title.)

The grass did sing to me once. I stood at the edge of a field, under the
shade of a redwood canopy. The shoulder-height grass before me rustled
and shifted in the wind like ripples on a calm ocean. Sunlight poured
over this grand display, illuminating the waxy surface of the blades as
they curled towards the sky. All else was silent. I was with the forest, the
animals, the insects, listening.
