815. Imaginative Grass: a calming bedtime and nap time story for kids

Be Calm on Ahway Island Bedtime Stories

A patch of grass has never seen what’s on the other side of the big rock, so they use their imagination to think of what could possible be there.

Imaginative Grass Excerpt:

It was a brisk morning in the Animal Sanctuary on Ahway Island. The sun was shining over the pasture as the breeze made the grasses dance across the meadow. Horses grazed in the distance, their tails swaying back and forth. Ducks waddled on the shore of the pond, quacking in a chorus. At the edge of the forest, shade covered a large rock and a small patch of green grass.

This patch of grass loved watching and listening to everything that went on in the world around them. By being observant, and listening carefully, the grass learned many things.

Today’s Meditation: Love flows through you in this meditation as you imagine a baby fawn and mama deer.
