One friend missing
Owl had a list in the soft moonlight. “Who is awake in the wood tonight?” She looked for her friends from her branch up high. But little Hedgehog had not gone by.
Fox
Fox came past with a swish of his tail. “Have you seen Hedgehog along the trail?” “Not yet,” said Fox. “But I’ll look too.” Off through the leaves went the helpful two.
Bat and Moth
Bat flew low. Moth fluttered by. “Have you seen Hedgehog?” Owl called high. “We heard a rustle down by the tree.” “Come,” said Owl. “Let’s go and see.”
A little voice
Badger was walking beside the stream. “Did you hear that, or did I dream?” A little voice said, “Here I am. I’m by the leaves. I’m by the dam.”
Hedgehog
There was Hedgehog, small and round. “My front door’s lost. It can’t be found.” Owl looked up, then looked down low. “I see your path. Come on. Let’s go.”
Home
Fox walked close, and Owl flew slow. Bat and Moth showed where to go. Past the tree and round the bend— there was the door for their little friend.
Goodnight
“Thank you,” said Hedgehog. “I’m home at last.” He shut his door as his friends went past. Some still wandered. Some curled up tight. Owl kept watch in the soft moonlight.
