"I had better get to come along on one of these council meetings sometimes," I said as I stood with one woman in each arm, but Melody shook her head.
"That is our time, and you wouldn't be able to find it if you wanted to! Only we girls know, right... Mrs. Tree? We really need to work on a new name for you! Hmmm, what about Vera?" Melody asked, and I looked over at the other beautiful creature that was in my arms. That name felt silly, and now looking into her yellow eyes, I was reminded of the sunrise in the morning.
"What about Dawn?" I asked, and Mrs. Tree smiled up at me and then leaned her head into me.
"I like that. Dawn is our favorite time of the day. The fresh warmth from the light and the hope for a new beginning."
