Sunset

Sunset was a tiny sailboat with a bright white sail and a brave little heart. Every evening, Sunset drifted across the calm ocean while the sky turned gold, pink, and orange. The gentle waves rocked softly, and two birds swooped above like dancing commas in the air.

One evening, Sunset felt a little lost. The horizon looked far away, and the water seemed to whisper, “Where should you go next?” Sunset wiggled on the waves and tried to remember the way home.

Then Sunset noticed something wonderful. The setting sun made a shiny path across the water, glowing all the way to a quiet harbor in the distance. The two birds flew ahead, as if they were friendly guides.

With a happy flutter of sail, Sunset followed the glowing path. The little boat floated over the waves, past the birds, and safely toward the harbor. Soon, Sunset found a cozy place to rest.

As the stars began to twinkle, Sunset smiled. The ocean had been big, but kindness, light, and a little courage made the journey lovely. Sometimes, the way forward appears when you look closely and keep going.
