Day to Day happenings in my life

Midnight. A story for little ones.

How about having some more fun with word couplets: black stallion, sugar cookies, whipped cream. farm hand, peanut butter and grape jam.


Jack, the farm hand, put down his stable rake and without washing his hands unwrapped his peanut butter and grape jam sandwiches.
His favourite horse, a black stallion called Midnight, shook his head.
“What are you looking at, Midnight? You wouldn’t enjoy peanut butter. It’s not for horses.”
Jack sat in the straw and ate. To him, horse manure smelled fine, it certainly didn’t put him off his food.
The horse watched every bite.
“You’re making me feel sorry for you, aren’t you?”
“The horse’s lips trembled.
“Okay you’ve won.” Jack opened his lunch box and found his wife’s sugar cookies and a container of whipped cream.
“Look what Jenny made, just for us.”
Midnight opened his mouth and ground his large teeth.
Jack dipped a sugar cookie into the cream and offered it to the magnificent beast on an outstretched, flat hand.
The owner of the horse, famous horse breeder entered the stable and laughed seeing Midnight and Jack standing side by side, unaware they both had sugary cream all over their mouths.
