Spring Begins

I wave my arms to say “hello” to the world. 

When I wake up, I take a big stretch and eat breakfast. I brush my teeth. 

I am the wind. And my name is Windy. 

I pollinate the old man palm tree. 

He is called the old man palm because he has a big beard!

The old man palm tree’s beard can be made into a pillow and his leaves can be turned into bowls. 

The old man palm has a restaurant where I eat spicy ramen bowls. There are eggs in my ramen and golden sausages in my ramen. Sometimes I eat chicken noodle soup. And sometimes I blow too hard and knock the soup right out of the bowl!

I am creative and I wear chicken shoes. The island I live on smells like plants and sounds clear, and I can feel the sun rays bouncing off of my fork and spoon while eating my soup.

One day, I was blowing pollen around the island and . . .

I got a little frustrated because I kept blowing my chicken noodle soup away. So I went to a restaurant by Belle Isle. It was called Chicken Noodle Soup Place. And they served their food in real bowls. They also served hash browns!

The new restaurant had magnetic doors and I used my magical hands to get in. I sat next to a banana plant. We talked about pollination.

The old man palm tree missed his best friend Windy. So the old man palm tree grew very tall to see where his best friend was. He waved his leaves in the sky to say “hi” to his friend and hug him. 

The wind came home to play with his friend during spring break! 

This time, they enjoyed spicy ramen with a side of tamales. The next day, they brushed their teeth.
