The Sleepy Mountain's Quiet Sigh
π
Bedtime Stories
Before falling asleep, Mount Sleepyhead took a deep, quiet breath and let out a gentle sigh. The sigh wasn't cold; it was a warm, soothing breeze that swept down into the valley, carrying the scent of pine and dry leaves. The breeze brushed past the cozy houses, whispering: 'It is time to rest, little ones.'
The forest animals heard the sigh and snuggled deep into their burrows. The bears in their caves, the squirrels in their hollows, and the birds in their nests closed their eyes. The quiet sigh brought a deep stillness to the valley. The mountain closed its rocky eyes, covered by a blanket of soft snow, drifting into a peaceful winter sleep, keeping the valley safe and quiet until spring.
