Week 6 Prompt: http://bluebellbooks.blogspot.com/2011/07/short-story-slam-week-6-childrens.html
*****
To the puppy,
Running fast and free makes him happy;
To the elephant,
Moving forward one step at a time is important;
“Let’s play hide and seek.”
Suggests the puppy,
Too bad the elephant could not win
Because he is too big to be unseen;
“Let’s swim cross the creek.”
Asks the elephant,
So sad that the puppy can not swim,
and he instantly begin to scream…
They are made different,
It’s impossible for them both to be excellent…
To keep each other’s company,
They must learn how to respect each other beautifully.
