Mirrors Before Dreams

In this gentle anthology from the Before Your Dream series, five quiet, luminous tales invite listeners into realms where memory drifts like water, stories grow from moss and stone, and peace settles over the heart like evening light. Crafted for slow nights and soft minds, these stories offer a sanctuary of calm—each one a small lantern carried into the hush before sleep.

Paper Boats on the River of Time

A river that appears only at first light carries paper boats made from letters, drawings, promises, and forgotten wishes. As they drift beneath ancient bridges and willow boughs, the quiet weight of human longing becomes a gentle, floating comfort.

The Moss Library

Deep beneath a breathing forest canopy lies a library grown from stone, roots, and story-leaves. Here, memories unfurl like ferns, footsteps are held in moss, and time moves with the patience of living earth.

The Passport of Forgotten Places

In a quiet room lit by a single candle, a worn passport opens into vanished worlds—a deserted railway platform, an empty market square, a riverlit library, a festival made of lanterns. Each stamp leads to a place where echoes rest instead of fade.

The Monastery by the Sea

On a windswept headland, an ancient monastery keeps its seven-century vigil. Waves breathe against the cliffs as monks walk the cloister, tend warm lamps, and move through halls shaped by tides, prayer, and dusk.

The Garden of Starlight

High above the clouds, a floating garden glows with flowers made of light, humming blossoms, silver trees, and a fountain where water rises instead of falls. A final sanctuary of deep rest.

Together, these five tales form a tranquil companion for night-time listening—an anthology for those who long for softness, quiet beauty, and the deep exhale before dreams.
