In Search of the Fern Flower

A five year old girl is the only one who has seen the fern flower on the night of the summer solstice. From then on, events happen that cannot be explained in our 'usual' way of thinking. Can human and animal souls survive the death of their physical bodies? Can they reach out beyond time and space to communicate with us - and even influence the events on our earth? The answers to these Big Questions are developed through this fictional story, an exploration of the idea of telepathic communication between humans and animals in our world and in other realms. "Or, maybe..." - Angela wondered - "those gifts, sent to us from the celestial realm, would love to fill the places they find lacking in flowers. Maybe on the night of the summer solstice they hover over the ferns...primordial ferns, surviving the twists and jerks of evolution, yet failing to bloom...maybe the heavenly flowers are eager to land there, but they are scared away by this murky fog of our thoughts and deeds...fern flowers are shy!"
