“Blackberries!” Brisa cried.

She flew back to the edge of the woods where she had last seen her friends.

“The blackberry patch!” she shouted, doing a backflip in the air. “It’s right here!”

Kona, Sirocco, and Sumatra flew over to join Brisa and stared in surprise. Brisa had expected them to be as elated as she was. Instead, they seemed sulky and grumpy.

“You must be hungry after all that flying,” Brisa said to them. “Being hungry can make a horse cranky.”

She whizzed over to her bush and plucked four plump berries. She passed one to each of her friends, then kept the fourth for herself. She took a big gushy bite.

“See!” she said. “They’re so sweet. Don’t these berries make you feel great?”

“Well, mine was pretty yummy,” Sirocco admitted grudgingly.

“Juicy, too,” Sumatra added.

“Indeed,” Kona said, with only a hint of frost in her voice.

“See, we all agree!” Brisa said joyfully. “It’s lovely that we get along so well, don’t you think?”

“Oh, Brisa!” Sumatra said, shaking her head and snorting.

“What?” Brisa asked brightly.

“I think what Sumatra meant,” Kona sighed, “was that we had better get started on our blackberry picking.”

“Yay!” Brisa cried. Singing to herself, she began to fly from bush to bush, looking for the prettiest berries.

Which is why she didn’t notice that the flowers in Kona’s halo were drooping. And why she didn’t see that Sumatra’s ribbon halo was sagging. And why she didn’t know that Sirocco’s butterflies were looking more frumpy than fluttery.

“La, la, la,” Brisa warbled. “This is such a great day!”
