The new day rose with a cold, golden sun.
Atop a small rock sat a brown rat, no bigger than a child’s shoe. It was a miniscule creature of very little importance, but it still had a life. So, it got on with its morning.
Skittering off the frost-slick stone, he passed a pair of chickadees in a heated argument over a berry. It must have been a special berry to cause such a ruckus. So the rat ran between them and picked it for himself, stuffing it into his cheeks with a look before running away.
It was not a special berry, just as he was not a special rat. But it tasted sweet just the same.
