"My First Journey" The text reads: I set out on my first journey at the age of six.
It happened whilst I was sleeping.
A year before I had planted a tree near the ocean.
It grew, but instead of fruit it bore paper boats. I wasn't surprised but I kept it a secret.
Whilst asleep that night I took one of the boats and sailed to the middle of the bay.
The stars fell one by one into the water and talked and played with me until dawn.
