Shell

The shell is a home living quietly between the sea and the land. Inside its hard exterior, a small heart is kept, listening to the sound of the waves, it walks slowly. On wounded days, it gently hides itself, and on sunny days, it stretches its neck again to look up at the distant sky. The scars etched on the shell are a map of a long journey. More quietly than words, they tell of the time that has passed.
