The tiny figure stirred under a large green leaf. The soft orange glow of the setting sun began to pour into the circular room. She laid in the middle, her eyes closed until a thin beam of sunlight hit her eyes. For a moment she just squinted her eyes, turning from the light and pushing the soft green leaf off her body. Underneath the cover she wore thin sheer fabric that hugged her body's shape and it's colors changed and danced within the beam of sunlight. Her bare feet touched the floor gently as she stood up, soft blonde hair cascading down her back in gentle waves. Her eyes were large and child-like, gazing as the many beams of sunlight that circled the wooden room.
She took a step back, her hand daintily reaching out for the one beam of light that had woken her up. There was not a sound to be heard under her thin fingers pushed across the light as she strummed. A small hum resonated in the room and she pulled her fingers back into position, plucking each one against the light, and as she did so the humming grew louder. A delighted laugh slipped past her soft lips.
Around the room the beams of light drew outward in a spiral pattern, the beams growing thicker the further out they went. The small figure took a small hop back, her hands held out in front of her as she danced between the beams of light, the hums varying in pitch between each beam.
Outside the hums of her music the soft murmur of animals sounded in time with the music she created. Her melody was gentle and her dance was graceful. She balanced on her toes and her fingers remained outstretched, strumming and plucking along the various lights. Her figure twirled and dance, her music echoing far from her home. The lullaby lured animals from their activities and coaxed them to a gentle slumber.
The thin fabric of her clothes danced around her, catching the sunlight and its colors changing faintly. Her hair, gold in the sunlight, shined and flew with her movements. The wind caressed her skin as her cheeks flushed with color. Her eyes brightened with amusement and her movements hardly made a sound.
The lights thinned with the lowering sun. They disappeared one by one and as she danced around the last beam of light, her lullaby came to a last soft hum of a note. The sounds of scurrying animals was no longer in the air, only soft breathing, and she placed her feet flat against the wooden floor. Moonlight glowed faintly, her figure covered in shadows as she retreated back to the center of the room. She picked up the large leaf, pulling it over her as she floated to the floor, falling into another deep slumber.
