Moysterings: A Lowcountry Fable

This is a fable of two unlikely friends: a great blue heron and a wise old oyster. The venerable oyster is the keeper of moysterings, which are the murmurs and whisperings of legends passed down through generations of oyster reefs. To preserve these ancient legends, the great blue heron must protect the oyster during the low tide. Together, as they wait for high tide to return, they share their tales of old and new.

She dedicates this fable to Hilton Head Island as an expression of her appreciation for the inspiration it breathed into her imagination. Susan can be reached at Moysterings@gmail.com.
