Cozy: You Nuggets are
hilarious. Your arms are getting weaker from the heat, so you rest back on your heels and relax them to your sides in a
gentle resting Pose as if you're a little Child all warm & cozy (hey, I LOVE that word ‘cozy'!) covered
in a blanket with your eyes closed.
Allysa:
Not me, thanks. I'm way too hot in this dessert for a blanket!
Cozy: Slide your way up as a Magical Feeling takes over your body and all of a sudden ... you've
turned into the Sphinx! Posing in the dessert for almost 5000 years, strong and solid, silent and peaceful. Never moving
even during sandstorms and wars.
Chad:
Sandstorms? That's when all the sand blows around like crazy and you can barely see, right?
Cozy: You got
it Chadmeister! Before you know it ... your body is moving all by itself and you're up on your hands & knees. Your
back is as flat as a table.
Brooke:
Flat enough to put a bowl of soup on?
Cozy:
Right ... that flat! Look down at the sand ... your puddle has dried up and vanished?! You hear that crunching sound again?
Tiny little Fairies come from out of nowhere carrying a large bowl of soup! They carry the soup up your legs and place it
on your flat back! They're having dinner?! The feeling of their little feet tickles so you take a deep breath in and
then exhale with a loud Ocean-sounding breath hoping that they'll go away. They don't! So push your tailbone up
to the sky and straighten your legs, pushing your hands into the sand and dropping your head. You're now a downward
facing Dog!!
Brooke: Wow! All the
Fairies flew away! But I think they spilled their soup on my back! Oh no, they're flying back under my body ... they
must think I'm a tent! I'll growl like my dog Spot "grrrrrrrrrr"!
Cozy: Ah, yes, Spot ... great
growl that guy! Now bring your right foot up between your hands with your right knee bent and stretch out that left leg behind
you. Look straight ahead watching those Fairies running away, disappearing behind the Pyramids. Bringing your left foot
up to meet your right, you start to feel like you're turning into a Human again! Your knees are both bent as you Curl
Up slowly, gently, quietly turning back into a Nugget. You're so happy that your arms come up as you inhale and they
once again reach to the sky only this time stretching up and behind you just a little bit to clap a floating feather that
passes between your hands. Then, bring your hands down together so not to lose the feather, in front of your heart and with
a smile on your face ... gently bow and thank the Sun for joining you today.
Emma: I love the Sun. I love being warm. That was fun Cozeman, can we do another story?
Cozy: I would love to.
But after all that work I need a few belly rubs, a snack, and a little walk outside to get some fresh salt air. As neat
as it would be to visit the desert, I love living along the Atlantic Shores of Eastern Passage!
Nuggets: You're right Cozeman ... we do too!
The End ...
