I turned the Sensational Haiku Wednesday prompt (dare) into a fun story today! My seven year old liked it =)
Five little monkeys
Take a shortcut home from school
Have to cross a creek
One dares to jump it
Misses edge and floats away
Four little monkeys
One dares to swing across it
But the vine breaks off
Have to get home for dinner
One dares to swim it
Current is too strong
Only two little monkeys
Look at each other
“Now what do we do?”
“I’ll race you back the long way.”
So they start to run
at dripping, soggy siblings
Smart little monkeys
