THE HERON’S FIRST CIRCLE
a night book of the ripple
William Vincent Carleton
A heron lifts one foot and sets it down, and a single circle moves out across the still water to the reeds. The heron doesn't watch it; it watches for the next fish. Lúmine and Líam watch from the path without speaking. A short Engine Series story about the ripples small actions leave, with reader notes and questions to carry.
Coming soon to Kindle
