| Sun Dial |
| by Doug Draime |
| He waits for the
the sun to fall from the sky. His family just shake their heads and moan. He writes nonstop poems about the sun falling from the sky. His friends have stopped coming around: “He’s a weird one!” He prepares to survive the sun falling from the sky, by shaving with a sun dial. His family meet him half way: they buy the shaving cream and typing paper. |
