There once was a little tree named Pickle. Pickle lived in the big woods right by the playground.
Pickle loved watching the other kids play on the playground.
The only problem was that Pickle was lonely. He wanted to go play with the other kids.
I'm lonely.
But because Pickle was a tree he could not run like the other kids. He was stuck to the ground.
Poor Pickle wanted nothing more than to go down the slide just once. He could just see himself going down the slide and imagine his branches flying in the wind.
WHEE
He even dreamed of going on a swing and yelling WHEE the whole time.
But those were only dreams. His grandma once told him that trees were not allowed to play. They just had to work all day long making oxygen for others.
But Pickle didn't like the sound of that one bit.
One day a fox walked past Pickle who was sad because he couldn't play with the other children. The fox stopped and looked at Pickle and said "Now, now, what's the matter, boy?"
Pickle looked at the fox and cried,
"Boo-hoo - I want to go play - Boo-hoo - but I can't - Boo-hoo - because I'm a -Boo-hoo - tree - Boo-hoo!!"
BOo-HOo
The fox said, "Well, don't you cry for one second longer, because I have just what you need. I have a flower pot that I can put you in so you can go play. I was going to put flowers in it but you seem to need it more."
"Really?" said Pickle. "You would do that for me?"
Really?!
