Grandma's Melodies

Tide of Battle

The menacing monster, bigger and scarier than anything you've ever seen, is gone. Your magical song worked! You watch as it breaks apart into a million tiny specks of stardust, disappearing into the night like a backward shooting star. The whole sky seems to glow brighter, and you realize the moon is safe and whole again. You protected it, and all the night-time creatures breathe a sigh of relief.

With the sound of your voice still echoing in the stillness, a soft golden glow surrounds you. This was the same glow your grandma would have when she told you stories about her magical jam and songs, about her battles with moon-eating monsters when she was your age. And now, you have your own story, your own victory! You feel proud knowing that you bravely fought and saved the night with grandma's secrets and a lot of courage. Tonight, you learned that magic doesn't always come from a wand or a spell. Sometimes, it comes from a song, sweet jam, and the power within you.

The End
