This is a cute story. I don't know why when I read another story recently about an emu I did realize it was a club challenge. You all think up interestting challenges for these writing clubs.

I enjoyed reading your story. Did she get hit by a car? I hope not but she will be disappointed when she finds out the flying lessons are not for her. I do not see any room for improvement. Have a blessed day.

Hi Yvonne, this is such a cute story. As the story was coming to the end, I was afraid that Evelyn would get hit by one of those "noisy rolling things." Yikes! To my relief. she just crossed to the other side, but I have a feeling she'll be in trouble when she gets back home to Mama Emu. Y, you penned a fun and lighthearted story that made me smile. Well done.

You have written a wonderful, and heartfelt story, Yvonne. It is a delightful encouragement to those who are dispirited and downhearted. I really enjoyed reading it.

How precious is this post. And why did the emu cross the road? To get killed endeavouring to learn to fly...of course. Beautifully written Yvonne. Excellent answer for the prompt. Well done, blessings Roy

Good on her, as she got an accent, when she introduces herself?

Of course. She lived in Arkansas.

Right!
Comment from Pam Lonsdale
LOL, I have been known to utter the words, "I bore myself."
What a great story for the club prompt! It's so simple yet so effective.
I sure hope Evelyn wasn't hit by one of those rolling noisy things her mother warned her about!!
Terrific story - thanks for sharing.

I hope she got safely across! And that she doesn't hurt herself when she tries to fly because unfortunately it's not going to happen. Lol. Well written. I enjoyed your story!

Comment from Pantygynt
If she got hit by a car she would quickly learn what flying was all about.
I enjoyed this story with it's somewhat open ending despite having answered the set question.
That is why I give it a six.

Thank you, you sweet man. I wanted everyone to decide the ending for themselves. I think she learned to fly a plane.

You really are the cockeyed optimist. Lol.
Comment from Ben Colder
Luckly, she lived to get across. Amazing how you can capture things like this. Now that takes talent or just plain wit. LOL. Good one , Arkie. Hope it does well for you.
