Womper

Womper found a leaf

standing on tiptoe.

WHOOSH.

Its ears opened like sails.

The leaf flew away.

Womper did not.

WHOOSH.

One foot scooted

sideways.

Then the other.

A snail raised a

tiny yellow flag.

Womper leaned

into the wind.

Its ears filled.

Its feet lifted.

For exactly one pickle—

Womper flew.

Then it womped into a fern.

Sometimes flying

ferns at the end.
