awakened the moon enjoys
her nighttime frolic

During this time of Covid shut-ins and lockdowns, children in Trinidad and Tobago are tucked into bed virtually with a series of bedtime stories written by local writers. Here; 2 narrators read my story - 'Third Planet From The Sun' (published 2017 by authourhouse UK). #130 in the series.

I love how you digitally overlaid the candle on the Starry Night. It was beautiful. And I learned even more about you this week. You are a writer and a good children's author. Simply wonderful that children are read these stories at bedtime. How impressive.

Hi Gillena :) I love your haiku today, so nice! And a pretty piece of art. Oh how neat that your story was narrated online! I listened to the whole thing, I love the idea of a bedtime story! And honestly, I love hearing the Trinidad/Tobago accent. I never hear that here :)) Chanel is so cute reading your story. What a lovely way she sang the song!! She has a beautiful voice! Now I have that tune in my head "la la, la la, la laaaaah" :) It's very cool to meet people all around the world. Gillena, that was a beautiful story! :))) Thanks so much for sharing! :)
