LOOKING FOR MOM AND DAD


Second installment Magic Waterfalls under Shadow Mountains:


Crossing the bridge had been a real adventure
for they had been told for years beyond
the bridge was where Dragon's hid, seeking
trespassers,mostly children there played, adults
the dragon's with swords slayed, and beyond
Foggy Valley every evil on earth stayed. Those
hiding under beds, from the stories adults to
them had read. But the kids all knew that it
would be beyond the bridge, and up the river,
they would find new friends, and one adventure
tried new adventures could not be denied.

Brave souls, or foolish kids, were Brent, Ryan
and Sidney with the sad blue eyes, and along
would tag Holmes, Sidney's dog to keep these
children wise. For someone said that beyond the
shadows of candy cane mountain, far above Cottage
Lake creek, was a land of adventure to seek, and
as the stories were told to go there only for
the bold, this hidden land they did trek, a trip
that should not be taken by the meek.

This is second installment of my children's story
told in rhyme and prose. The story in its entirety
can be found at storypen.com/dandy. Continued: THE
POT BOILS OVER.
