disappearing act
they sat in a circle
boy girl
boy girl
boy girl
making up a story
one sentence at a time
a story about a stickman
made out of salty pretzels
wearing a white paper hat
and strutting around
outside the ring
twirling a magician’s cane
and making each one disappear
with a simple tap of their crowns
april two thousand sixteen

Children have such wonderful imaginations. 🙂
Oh yes, they certainly do, Olga!
so vivid, great ❤
glad you think so, Bonnie!
Very charming!
Thank you, Millie!
I can imagine this as a book (with Millie’s drawings)
yes a very short story!
Actually, I was envisioning a childrens book
I adore this!
thank you Heather – elated that you do
I actually find the imagination a little scary… but maybe I see a metaphor of something else.
I would tend to agree with your assessment.
