The lighter side of Reality Chapter 3, Wooly Bears"What do you see?" inquired the mouse, seeing that Mr. Monk was looking through the 'see far' instrument. Made from a black straw and two clear marbles, Mr. Monk was looking into the trees. "Bears" he replied. A scurry of feet and the crashing sounds coming from the closet indicated that Mr. Mouse was now hiding in its farthest recesses. "B..b..b..bears?" stuttered the frightened mouse.

Mr. Mouse is definitely the nervous type. Not that an actual bear wouldn't frighten me either :) Login or register to leave a comment. |
