The day was warm, the breeze was mild, the District Line trains rumbled past on the far side of the common and the bee fell asleep.

When the bee woke up it was dark. The houses standing opposite the common and the trains that rumbled past it were all lit with golden windows. The street lamps showed their globes of bluish light; footsteps and shadowy figures passed on the pavement. There was a full moon over the trees; there was a smell of honeysuckle in the air.

The bee looked up at the moon. “No sun,” said the bee. “I can’t possibly find my way home without the sun to go by. I’ll have to stay in town tonight.”
