The Squirrel and the Compact Disc



"Sheesh she took it again," lamented Karly as she saw the branch that once had a cherry growing.

"I told you...let's pluck it." she reminded in an aggravated tone.

"But what's the use of an immature fruit. No one would have been able to eat it at home" Mom commented.

"Well, the squirrel did," Karly said while wiping her tears and removing those CDs from the branches that were hanging like an ornament. 

"These were of no use. The Squirrels did not get scared off their reflection. I rather use them to record my melancholic stories."

A hike to remember



Laura and her family went on a hike in the woods. The surroundings were serene except for a bunch of squirrels who would go hither and thither. That would make them pause in their steps by giving these little creatures the way. 

Seeing them nibble cutely on their food, she showed interest in being clicked with one of them. 

Her son brought her and the little creature into one frame, and was about to click, when his eyes widened, and he screamed in horror.

Curious Laura turned around and to her dismay; she saw a bear in the background.
