0:00 A single, downy feather let go from the wing of a sleeping robin.0:06 It was just past dawn, the same time our friend Lumi the Dawn Sprite begins to paint the dewdrops with morning light.0:18 But this little feather wasn't starting its day in the forest.0:25 It was high, high up on a quiet city rooftop, and a gentle breath of wind had just come to visit.0:35 The wind whispered, "Ready for an adventure?" And the little feather...0:42 simply...0:43 let GO.0:44 At first, it tumbled.0:46 End over end, a little dizzy.0:49 But then it found its balance.0:52 It stretched out its soft little spine and caught the breeze.0:58 Whoosh!0:59 Up it went, higher than the rooftops.1:03 The whole city was a quiet, sleeping giant below.1:08 It saw the first light of the sun touch the top of a tall glass building, making it glow like a secret crystal.1:20 It floated over a bakery, and the warm, sweet smell of morning bread drifted up to say hello.1:29 Ohhh, what a lovely smell.1:32 A little puff of wind sent it dancing sideways, and it peeked into a window where a fluffy orange cat was doing a BIG morning stretch.1:46 The feather wiggled a little, as if to say "me too!" It drifted lower now, past the windows and down toward the street.1:58 The world looked so different from down here.2:03 It saw a tiny green sprout, no bigger than an eyelash, pushing its way up through a crack in the sidewalk.2:14 So brave.2:15 So STRONG.2:16 It swooped over a puddle left from a little nighttime rain, and for a moment, the feather saw itself.2:26 A tiny white boat sailing on a sky of upside-down blue.2:32 It wasn't in a hurry.2:34 The wind was its friend, carrying it like a secret.2:39 Then...2:40 the wind grew tired.2:42 It gave a soft little sigh, and the air became very still.2:48 The journey across the sky was over.2:52 Now, the journey down began.2:55 The feather began to fall.2:57 Not fast, oh no.2:59 It was a slow, gentle spiral.3:02 Around...3:03 and around...3:04 and around.3:05 Like a ballerina taking a final, graceful bow.3:10 It saw the world turn slowly...3:13 a green park bench...3:16 a sleepy pigeon...3:17 the dark bark of a tree...3:20 around...3:21 and around.3:22 It drifted past the branches of the tree, missing every single twig.3:29 It floated just over the back of the park bench.3:34 And then, with the softest little whisper of a touch, it landed.3:41 It landed right inside a small, red, woolen mitten.3:46 Someone had left it behind.3:49 The mitten was empty and soft and warm from the morning sun.3:55 The perfect resting place.3:58 The feather snuggled down into the cozy wool.4:02 Its big adventure was done.4:05 And just like that little feather, you've had a big day full of your own adventures.4:14 And now it's time to find your own soft, warm place to rest.4:20 To snuggle down...4:22 and be perfectly safe...4:25 until morning comes again.4:27 Goodnight, little one.
