In the meadow of Alderfen, the smallest creatures survive by staying unnoticed. Field mice gather fallen grain, beetles carry crumbs beneath leaves, shrews tunnel between roots, sparrows glean seeds from the hedges, and frogs keep to the cool banks of the reed pond.

A hymn for those we’ve lost — and for what endures when everything else is gone.
