Bird for Short

By: Ryan Wang, 9

One night, there was a bird named Bird That Sings At Night, Bird for short. Bird was a lark. He slept next to Crag With A Nest Full Of Birds, Crag for short. Bird also slept next to Lark That Rides The Wind, Lark for short. They were all friends. On another branch slept Moss That Clings On Rock, Moss for short. Next to Moss slept Rock That Tumbles Down Hills, Rock for short.

One morning, Bird woke up. He was normally an early riser, careful not to wake up Crag or Lark, and flew to a different tree to see Moon That Rises Over The Sun, Moon for short. Afterward, he decided to go hunting. As he flew, he saw a worm. He took it, ate it, and went to sleep.
