Podcast:Drift Off - Bedtime Stories for Adults Published On: Tue Mar 19 2024 Description: Welcome back! Tonight we have a fairytale sleep story called 'The Tears of Prunella' by Evelyn Sharp. In this dreamy fairytale, we follow a young lad who is deaf due to an enchantment bestowed upon him by the whims of fairyland. This enchantment separates him from the world he so dearly wishes to be a part of and, with unwavering determination, he seeks to become a real boy—not for the sake of hearing the songs of birds or the rustle of the wind, but to hear the tears of his princess and offer the comfort that only true friendship can provide. As always, the story begins with a short 'settling in relaxation' followed by the storytelling. The soft background music will continue for short while after the storytelling to help you transition to sleep. Enjoy and sweet dreams!Your friend,Joanne :)Attributions:Intro music 'Tranquility Lane' by Dawn Dawn Dawn via Epidemic SoundStory music 'Adrift' by Christopher Lloyd ClarkThe Tears of Prunella (from the book 'The Other Side of the Sun) by Evelyn Sharp & resides in the public domainThis podcast is 100% listener-supported, completely ad-free, and made possible by wonderful listeners like you.
