Beeblezorp!
My friends, I lost my hair
somewhere.
Please,
the trees
have taken it. They're a mischievous lot, these trees
belieeeeves
mees!
They say that they're greenery
But sometimes their scenery
is orange and yellow and red.
I'm in need of my HAIR!
You stare
at my bare
bald head.
Help me quick. I'm star-eyed with pleasure to see you near,
but FEAR
there's no time to waste
Let's just paste
these fallen pine needles. I feel quite chilly. It's forty degrees. And we gnomes, we gnomes know
know
KNOW
that winter is near. You look in that tree with the sharp point thorns. That's the one that I think is the meanest.
It's the one that still is the greenest,
so I think it's stealing all kinds of things to keep itself green through the winter.
This story wound up being mildly inspired by my other story, which you should contribute to, a part of the OSIS project.
You saw a link to freewriting above. This is a fun melding of all the worlds.
