Can you write a friendly little story with these in this order?? (just a fun activity..NOT H.W!!)?
As I was MERRILY SKIPPING stones across the little pond at the end of PRIMROSE PATH there suddenly came a loud clap of THUNDER AND LIGHTNING flashes followed. I thought I heard voices exclaiming in alarm. They seemed to be coming from a bank of low shrubs near by. I moved closer and listened intently. I thought I heard whispers of, "Shh!" and "Quiet!" but I couldn't be sure.





"Is anyone in there?" I called. No answer. I moved closer and parted the leaves to peer inside. I thought I caught a glimpse of movement. "Okay, come out of there, whoever you are!" I ordered as I moved back a little.





A wizened little old man dressed all in green with a long white beard appeared. He was no more than eight inches tall! He reached to remove his hat as he looked up at me nervously. "Who are you?" I asked in wonder. "What are you?"





"I am Ki, leader of the MUNCHKINS," he explained. "We came to participate in our annual water Olympics and we got stranded," he added in explanation.





"We? There are more of you?", I almost stammered in surprise.





A beautiful tiny lady emerged from the shrub and stood beside the wizened little man. She wore a golden diamond studded tiara.. "I am Ti," she smiled with a nod of her head. "Queen of the SPRITES. We mean no harm and would like to be FRIENDS since you have discovered our existence."





I sat down with a sudden weakness in my legs and amazement as one by one a whole audience of little people gathered around me. "Do I get three wishes or a pot of gold?" I asked dizzily.





Ki laughed. "That is only in fairytales," he explained. "We don't have the power to grant wishes nor do we have a pot of gold."





"Where do you come from?" I wanted to know. "Have you always been here?"





"We come from the Land Of Za," he explained. "And we can't get back until there is a SUN SHOWER."





"A sun shower? What is that?" I asked.





"It's a gentle shower of rain without thunder and lighning while the sun is still shinning creating a RAINBOW. That is our pathway home."





"Ohh, Look!", came a cry from several little people. "Ki, Look! A rainbow! We can go home!"





Ki and Ti smiled up at me happily. "We have to get ROLLING," Ki laughed. "That rainbow won't wait for long."





I stretched my legs and opened my eyes. There were no little people around anywhere. Had I fallen asleep here beside this pond and dreamed it all? It all had seemed so real. Then a sparkle caught my eye. I parted the grass and what, to my surprise, did I find? A tiny little golden tiara that barely fit the tip of my little finger!
Reply:It was very late when Char checked her email. She had been planning on going to bed at a somewhat decent hour. But, no, instead of merrily dreaming on, here she was skipping sleep and being led down the primrose path by the woman she thought of as her friend. There was thunder and lightning playing about outside as Munchkins and Sprites, her two cats and her only real friends in this world, slept in their baskets by the window. "Tomorrow morning there will be a sun shower and a rainbow because rain is rolling in for the next five hours," thought Char as she typed out a silly story for the unappreciative Silva. "And I won't be around to see it because I'll be a Zombie, unless I sleep until late afternoon. It is all Silva's fault", Char stated disgustedly, out loud.


Peace, Out!


C. :)!!
Reply:As she was merrily skipping along the primrose path, the thunder and lightning began. She thought during the flashes that she saw munchkins and sprites hiding in the trees. She wanted to be their friends. But the sun started shining through the rain--a sun shower--and she couldn't see them anymore. Except when she noticed the rainbow: she was quite certain to have seen some little figures rolling toward its end.

"The Army-Navy Game"

As the big game got underway, Sunshine (1) merrily hugged Matt, hoping he would forgive her.


Miss Kitty watched..."HA!!! It'll take more than a hug to put a smile THAT face!!! "


Sarge cringed as he asked Matt how he was feeling.


Matt:"How am I FEELING?! (2) Skipping the fact that my ***** are nearly frozen......Fine....JUST fine!! This damn ice pack is awful!!!"


Silva laughed hysterically at the face Matt was making at Sunshine.


Miss Kitty:"Ha!Ha! The (3) primrose path ain't what it used to be, huh, Matt?"


Matt glared at Kitty.


Silva:" GAWD!!! Your face reminds me of (4) thunder and lightning, Marshal Dilwon.*hic*


Sunshine:"(5)Munchkins? Could you move over a bit, please?"


Matt:" No I can NOT move over....I can't move at all!!!!"


Sunshine bought a couple of hotdogs and (6) sprites to lighten the mood .....It didn't work.


Sarge, ever the mediator, put his arms around Sunshine and Matt....(7)" Friends....Remember....You are not only lovers....You're friends."


At that VERY moment a (8) sun shower bathed Matt's face and spirit. He leaned over and whispered something in Sunshine's ear. She cooed and nuzzled his neck.


Silva:"Awwwwww. Ain't that sweet?"


Kitty:"Dandy. JUST dandy."


The crowd erupted in a huge cheer as Navy scored !!


The Blue Angels flew overhead with exhaust that had the colors of the (9) rainbow.


Sunshine was beside herself with excitement....."NOW WE'RE(10) ROLLING !!! GoooooooOOOOOOO NAVY !!"


Matt turned away from her and covered his sore area.....Just in case.

♫ And so it's up with the Navy boys and down with the foe. Good old Navy's up for a victory♫"
Reply:Merrily Steinbaum could feel her heart skipping in her chest. She was lying on the examination table at her gynecologist's office, sweating bullets under the flimsy paper gown the somewhat abrupt nurse had given her.





"If only I hadn't let Sherman lead me down the primrose path, I wouldn't be in this predicament," she silently lamented.





She knew there would be thunder and lightning, for sure, from her parents if she had to tell them she was preggers. Her Dad had explicitly told her he didn't want any damned "munchkins" underfoot now that his kids were grown and in college. It made her sweat all the more as the possible scenarios played out in her mind.





"Ohh, why was I so dumb? If I'd just told Sherman "No!" I could be back in the dorm drinking Sprites and microwaving nachos with my friends." A rather large tear slid down the crease between her nose and mouth. It tasted salty and bitter.





"I shouldn't have let Sherman convince me to take a sun shower with him. I should have known it was just an excuse to see me naked," she half-sobbed as she clenched the paper gown in her fists.





The gynecologist walked in and smiled. "Well, Miss Steinbaum, you're pregnancy test is negative. You may get dressed."





Outside, as Merrily was hurrying to her Dad's Mercedes parked in the doctor's parking lot, there was a rainbow in the sky.





"I can't wait to tell Sherman! He'll be rolling on the floor laughing over how silly I was. I think I'll stop at Victoria's Secret on the way home. Shermie just loves their thongs...."
Reply:two dunces were walking merrily along the road when they encountered a skipping giraffe. as they oohed and ahhed in amazement, the giraffe skipped onto a nearby primrose path. the dunces followed, entranced. suddenly, thunder and lightning shook the sky. dunce no. 1 looked around and saw that his counterpart was now held in the clutches of an evil venus fly trap that had been lurking in a particularly dense and gaudy patch o' primroses. when no. 1 asked no. 2 what had happened, he had nervously replied, "i saw the munchkins... they were dancing with sprites, their friends, and oh! it looked so fun!... but they're not here anymore..." no. 1 shot back, "you dunce! how can a munchkin dance with a soda? this is all prolly a gov't mind scam. weeding the gene pond. decellerating the surplus population." "oh," replied the second dunce sadly. "silence, you dunces!" boomed the venus fly trap. "i am oz, the great and terrible! i'll crush you in my jaws, sharp and terrible! because you've broken my laws and you are terrible! and i'll crush you in my jaws, and claws, and my cause is be-cause you've broken my laws! so keep your little paws, off my propertay, or face the wrath o' my jaws, that's the price ya pay! yo yo yo, uh huh uh huh ooh ooh, all ma homies gatha round, cuz this is my ground, and no one comes around, unless i tell em to!" dunce no. 1 looked in the background and saw a whole line of back-up venus fly trap singers beat-boxing and break-dancing and flashing their bling.





"oh brother," thought no. 1.





suddenly a distant thumping of hooves broke the silence. skipping hooves. the skipping giraffe. it wheeled to a stop in front of the impromptu rap performance. "Oz!" the giraffe screeched. "what did i tell you about those doing those government mind scams! only one every twenty-four hours, no more. if i catch you doing this again, i'll tell dick cheney you've been eyeing up those chippendales dancers! and what is this racket you keep singing?"





"oh ma, you ruin all the fun. ya ruin all da fun, you such a nun, now i'm gonna shun, uhuh uhuh--" "Oz!" the giraffe yelled. "back to the cabbage patch for you! i told you the primrose patch was a privelege." "ma," Oz groaned. "you do know those smiley little dolls are the WORST break-dancers EVER?" but Oz was already sinking back down into the ground, moaning, "i'm melting, i'm mmelllllttiiinnnnngg...". the giraffe shook her head and turned to dunce no. 1. "he is such a drama king. i'm Eph, by the way." "i'm Adunce. at least, that's what everyone calls me. has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?"





dunce no. 1 spotted no.2 suddenly and rushed over to where his companion was laying on the ground, where Oz had spat him back out again. he had several large holes gouged through him by Oz's true-to-their-name sharp teeth. "are you all right?" asked no. 1. "of course; it's only a flesh wound!" replied no. 2 cheerily.





and suddenly, the sun broke through dark clouds, a sun shower. in the distance, a rain bow appeared, and Eph, who was watching them, let out a beam of light from her horns. soon, the dunces were rolling merrily back down the primrose path.
