Today I found a small black creature in my garden of strawberries. It had a red coat on with black spots on the outside. He crawled on one of the green blade. Then up to the leaf above it. And then from that leaf back to the first leaf. He didn’t seem mean but looked more happy then some of the other creatures in the garden. I wanted to be friends with this new creature so I reached out my hand so he wouldn’t be scared of me. He must not have been scared of me because he crawled right to me. Stepped on to my finger and crawled all around my fingers. I turned my hand so he wouldn’t be upside down when he went all the way around my hand. He reached the top of my finger and I looked at him with a smile. “Hello, want to be friends?” I said. He didn’t say anything. I looked closer at him. Then he lifted his coat and gray wings came out he flew to my face. Surprised I closed my eyes. I slowly opened them and saw that he had landed on the rim of my glasses. Wow. He sat on my glasses awhile and then spread his wings again to fly back to the leaf of the strawberry vine. It was as if he was saying nice to meet you new friend.
