A Gentle Tilt

Everything was very quiet and warm. I opened my eyes and looked into the soft pink glow around me. For a while, I just stood still, listening. Then, I wondered... could I move? Gently, carefully, I leaned my head a little bit to the side. It moved. I took one tiny wobble forward and felt the solid floor under my toes. I can stand, and I can look around all by myself.
