"At night, they sleep in the air!" my grandma would say. I thought it was amazing that they could sleepso close to the stars.
Because my grandma was very old by now, and could hardly hear, hardly see, and hardly move at all.
But she said to me, "The day it‘s my turn to go, I‘ll fly around you first."

A swallow appeared and flew several times around my head.
At first, I didn‘t realize it, but then I remembered. I remembered what she‘d said to me.
And I knew it was her.

And when it‘s my turn to fly, I‘ll fly with a butterfly‘s wings.
