Story: Ocean Seasons (MEDIUM)
Once upon a time, in the vast, shimmering ocean, lived a charming dolphin named Dolly.
Dolly was unique because she experienced all four seasons under the sea, just like humans do on land.
In the spring, Dolly loved to play with the colourful fish that returned after the cold winter.
She would leap high into the air, splashing back into the water, creating a rainbow of droplets around her.
During the summer, Dolly would swim deeper into the cool ocean to escape the sun's heat.
She would explore the mysterious caves and make friends with the creatures that lived there.
When autumn arrived, Dolly noticed the leaves falling from the trees on the shore and the ocean's surface becoming a little cooler.
She would collect the fallen leaves and play hide and seek with her friends.
Winter was Dolly's favourite season.
She loved the calmness of the ocean and the beautiful snowflakes that fell on the surface.
One winter, Dolly met a handsome dolphin named Danny.
They would swim together, play together, and soon, they fell in love.
As the seasons changed, their love for each other only grew stronger.
They promised to be together, through every spring bloom, every summer adventure, every autumn leaf, and every winter snowflake.
And so, they lived happily, loving each other through all the seasons under the sea.
