Lullaby

An old man is lost in his dream. Deep in the night forest, he sees a dark figure moving towards him and notices that the moon in the branches is part of the crown of a giant creature looking like a celestial goddess. She moves gracefully and without a sound. Little stars dancing like firebugs adorn her dress. Her kind face exudes serenity. The Dark Mother leans down and gently touches the old man for a moment and he realizes that he does not want to wake up. His body disappears leaving only his soul manifested in the body of a newborn bunny. The Dark Mother cradles the bunny and carries him away.
