A Newfound Friend is from the collection Curious Encounters.
A quiet moment of recognition, rooted in innocence and the longing to connect.
Nestled gently in the sand, a small toy horse gazes upward toward a curious seahorse. The two meet in a shared stillness - one crafted by human hands and left behind, the other a delicate wonder of the ocean. Though worlds apart, something tender passes between them: curiosity, perhaps. Or a flicker of kinship in the unlikeliest of places.
A Newfound Friend speaks to the hidden beauty of connection - how even the discarded or forgotten can become part of the story. It's a reminder that presence alone can be powerful, and that wonder often lives in the quietest encounters.
