Spring Fling '23 Contest Entry

SPRINGS SPRINGALICIOUS WAND.

147 words.




Spring said goodbye to Winter before jumping into the earth.  

She couldn’t wait to wave her springalicious wand and bring everything to life.


“Look alive!” Spring said, fluttering into the air. 

One minute Spring was sunny.

Another minute she was pouring.


Into the wild she went, waving her springalicious wand and chanting,

“Springarubra!” 


Out came the hibernating bears.

Raccoons.

Chipmunks and the hamsters.

YAWN!

GROWL!


Tramping into the bushes, Spring waved her springalicious wand again, chanting, 

“Springarubra!” 


SPLISH-SPLOSH!

The rain poured and the rustling leaves turned green. 

“Yippee! You’re the best!” the leaves chorused.


Zapping into the orchard, the trees and flowers chimed,

“Hello Spring!”

“Hey guys!” Spring said, before waving her springalicious wand and chanting, 

“Springarubra!” 


SPLASH!

Just then, the flowers and trees were blooming and bursting with colors. 


Spring waved her springalicious wand at the sky in time for her to say hello to Summer.
