Watching the night sky,
Stars twinkling.
I get cold.
Zip up my little temporary home.
Read the book laid out on the ground,
as I read,
I hear owls hooting,
I hear the wind blowing calmly.
I hear nature.
The next morning,
I open up the zipper of the little home.
Absorbing in the morning sun, warming up my skin.
I close my eyes and stretch.
Eager to enter the outer world, I hop out and leave.
My little tent is empty, but I see you again.

This is about a child, being outside in a tent by themselves for the first time.
