Jus wonderin how many people
can take four words they have never'
seen before and make a short short
story from them?
My words are grass, clock, dog; and
chicken
The Umwanted Rooster
by P Hatey
Jenny looked at her lawn, the grass
really needed mowing and trimming
but she was two mlnutes late to class.
she gave a maximal
shake to the clock
The third grade class was all in their
seats even Jeramy Givems and his dog
Troy
The class loved Jenny as she was a great
teacher and too she allowed Jeramy to
have hgis dog Troy.
Today she asked Jeramy to read his A ;plus
paper to the class. Jeramy was liked by
most of his classmates.
Cock a doddle do, Cock a Doodle do sounded
inhe middle ot the classroom.A big white
rooster struted and gave ou t with the
cock a ddodle dos
Jeramy gasped. "Milss Jenny I did not'
bring Toodles to clsss honest. The outside
door is open."
Jenny assured him she was not upste As she
and Jeremy sgooedd the rooster Toodles outside
and shut the doorThe whole ckass was laughing
as was Jenny and Jeremy.
When class was over Jenny found Jeremy's
father had come to pick Jeremy up as school

That's a fun tale that you came up with. Your post reminds me of the 5 word poetry challenge that Jecka does.
Mr. Dog, well, he really was a pup but he thought he was a real Dog, stared down Ms. Chicken. She knew exactly who she was: a gal on a mission. It was almost 11:15. Past time to lay her daily egg. She clucked at the Basset boy: "You'd best get off my grass. I've business to do and you're in my way!"
He woofed, pretending to check out a flea on his back.
Ms. Hen by now was quite cross. She shook her head and just that quick, flew at the silly pup, nipping the end of his wiggly waggly tail.
Kai yi yipe yipe! Mr. Dog exclaimed, streaking away from the little red hen. She merely said, "The clock waits for no one!" as she trod the path to the coop.
