Stop 0: Moss Land
the way in · The Stepping Stones
Goes to sleep when its stepping stones stop rocking
Home. Everyone in it is quietly getting sleepy
Stop 1: The Sleepy Forest
the trees have faces · Old Oak · Lonny · Silver · Alpine · Timber
Goes to sleep when every secret eye closes, one after another
Where the trees close their eyes one branch at a time
Stop 2: The Sleepy Springs
water out of the ground · resident owed
Goes to sleep when the water stops rising and only shines
Where the water begins, coming out of the ground
Stop 3: The Snoozy Stream
the willow and the crossing · The Whispering Willow
Goes to sleep when it stops babbling — sound first, then surface
The willow and the crossing. Never “Sleepy Stream”
Stop 4: The Sleepy Waterfall
it falls · Shut Eye Sam
Goes to sleep when it thins to a shine
Where the water slows to a murmur and stays there
Stop 5: The Sleepy Lake
you cannot see the other side · resident owed, and not a willow
Goes to sleep when its reflection becomes a perfect mirror
You cannot see the other side
Stop 6: The Starlit Shore
stars in the water · the threshold
Goes to sleep when the stars in the water go out before the stars above
Stars in the water. The threshold between the lake and the sea
Stop 7: The Sleepy Sea
heard, never arrived at · whales · dolphins
Goes to sleep when it goes flat and mirrors the Sleepy Lights
It breathes. Heard, never arrived at
