Alocashia In The Hedge

NaNoWriMo Day 6 – Escapee

Oops. Hello. Sssh, don’t make a sound.
Are you sure there’s no one else around?
Yes, you saw me on that superstore rack,
and I tell you now – I’m not going back.

I managed to hide and stay out of sight
And waited until they put out the light.
Then, like that little old Gingerbread Man
I climbed out of my pot and ran and ran.

That’s how I come to be here in this ditch.
I love it! (Just these nettles give me an itch.)
I’ve found my wings and now I’ll fly, you’ll see.
It’s no fake ceramic plastic pot for me!
