What to do with a sick little boy…hmmm. My little man and I wrote “together” tonight. This will be “his” story. He was very adamant that after I write a line he has to “approve” it before it can stay. The end, when he wanted them “talking” sounds weird to me, with all of the “he said’s” and “she said’s” and the abrupt ending. However, he said that he wants it that way and that’s what matters. He’s still sick and feverish today and he had a lot of fun doing this. So, as he says, “this is what you get, The End.”
TED THE DINOSAUR
Ted the dinosaur did his happy dance…
Would you like to know why?
He’d gone on a mission to find a friend,
Searching all over the land and sky.
A flying friend sounded neat to Ted,
It’s something he wished he could do!
So he climbed to the top of a mountain.
Up to the sky all bright and blue.
Every time a pterodactyl flew past,
Ted waved and jumped up and down.
He tried again and again to say hello,
Then finally gave up with a frown.
So Ted decided to look on land,
Where many dinosaurs can be found.
There were tall dinosaurs and short ones,
There were even some small, fat and round!
Some of the dinosaurs ran so so fast,
That Ted couldn’t get them to stop!
Other dinosaurs were so so tall,
That Ted couldn’t reach the top!
Feeling like he’d never find a friend,
Ted’s heart began to sink.
He wasn’t sure where to go next,
So he went to the lake for a drink.
Ted sat at the edge of the lake,
Trying his hardest not to cry,
When suddenly the water splashed
And he heard someone whisper “why?”
Ted jumped up in surprise and looked,
Saying, “Oh! What kind of dinosaur are you?”
It said, ” I’m Ella the Elasmosaurus,
Would you like to see what I can do?”
“Sure” Ted nodded, not knowing what to expect.
Ella dove into the water and disappeared,
Then she came back up and flipped in the air!!
Ted jumped up and clapped and cheered!
He asked her, “why’d you whisper, why?”
“Because you were looking really sad,” she said,
“And I was only wondering why.”
“Well, I was wishing I had a friend,” said Ted.
And Ted ducked his head, feeling shy,
But Ella smiled saying,”I’ll be your friend!”
Ted grinned,”Wow! Will you really??”
She nodded and Ted’s heart began to mend.
And they lived happily ever after.
The End.
