Fern trail held four safe and near.
The garden marker left from here.

At berry landing, three sounds grew:
hum, then brush, then tap came through.

Build it backward: hum, brush, tap.
Hold the pause in caregiver lap.

Turn it forward: tap, brush, hum.
Baby Bentley listened when the sounds had come.

One berry ring was lost, then found.
It marked a meeting place on the ground.

Callen tapped. Aleea brushed.
Lillian checked the space and hushed.

No cheer began until all were fine.
Baby Bentley rested through the last line.

Quiet Lillian looked and said,
“Meet by the ring. Keep room instead.”
