One fine day when the sun was shining way up in the sky, a pair of hares came hopping by. Watching them from behind a fir tree was an enormous grizzly bear. He had been keeping an eye on them for about a week from his cave in the hills. Now here was his chance for a pieceof succulent hare pie for tea.

He crept from his hiding place and charged at the hares. They took totheir heels and ran for the main road. Luckily a passing van stopped and gave the hares a lift and saved their skins.

"Cherry lips, crystal skies

I can show you incredible things

Stolen kisses, pretty lies

You're the king, baby, I'm your queen"

"Screaming, crying, perfect storm

I can make all the tables turn

Rose gardens filled with thorns

Keep you second guessing“

Taylor Swift

"He clasps the crag with crooked hands;

Close to the sun in lonely lands,

Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.

The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;

He watches from his mountain walls,

And like a thunderbolt he falls.“

Alfred Tennyson

"The idiosyncrasy of this town is smoke. It rolls

sullenly in slow folds from the great chimneys of

the iron-foundries, and settles down in black,

slimy pools on the muddy streets. Smoke on

the wharves, smoke on the dingy boats, on the

yellow river--clinging in a coating of greasy soot

to the house-front, the two faded poplars, the

faces of the passers-by.“

You are on a Caribbean cruise. The weather is amazing, the food is

fantastic and your tan is looking good. However, disaster strikes. The

cruise ship is leaking and the engine has been destroyed. As the ship

starts to sink, you see a small island about half a mile away. You have

one minute to grab three items that will help you survive on the island.

You must grab the items before the last remaining life boat leaves.

What will you grab? Remember! The items must come from the ship

so I doubt that there will be a huge machete for cutting down trees…
