The Witch and the Shark In the ocean, deep and blue,Lived a shark named Finn, who everyone knew.He loved to swim, so fast, so free,Gliding through the endless sea. Finn was huge, a giant so wide,With tiny fins on his massive side.His belly was white, his body light blue,With eyes so big, they sparkled too! He swam like a whale but faster, more free,A gentle giant beneath the sea.Though big and strong, he’d never bite,He’d rather play from day to night! But in the woods, both dark and tall,Lived a witch with a cackling call.Morwen was old, with skin dark green,The grumpiest witch you'd ever seen!Her nose was crooked, her fingers long,She loved to lie and sing spells wrong! The volcano rumbled, big and bold,Spitting smoke and lava cold.Morwen thought, "To calm this flame,A giant shark shall end its claim!" With magic words and swirls of air,She pulled Finn up—oh, what a scare!Through the jungle, past the trees,Over mountains, past the seas. The animals gasped, they saw him fly,A shark up high, up in the sky!“We must act fast, we must be spry,Or Finn will roast before our eyes!" The wise old turtle, slow but smart,Spread the word, made a start.The mighty sea spirit heard the call,And sent a wave—so huge, so tall! Just before Finn took the drop,The ocean roared—SPLASH, PLOP!A mighty wave, so strong, so wide,Swept Finn safely back inside. Morwen shrieked, her spell went poof,She slipped and slid right off the roof!Down she tumbled, wet and mad,No more spells—oh, she was sad! And so, Finn swam, both safe and sound,With fishy friends all gathered ‘round.The sea was calm, the sky was bright,And all was well, both day and night. The end! 🌊✨

Deep in the fog-draped mountains, where the wind howls like a pack of wolves and the pines whisper ancient secrets, there was a cliff known as Elk’s End. The cliff was steep and sheer, plunging down into a misty abyss. But people didn’t come for the view—they came for the elk. This was no ordinary elk. Larger than any they'd ever seen, his antlers twisted like tree branches against the sky, and his coat shimmered with an ethereal glow that sparkled faintly in the moonlight. But the elk appeared only on the darkest nights, his hooves leaving no prints, his eyes gleaming with an unsettling intelligence. Legend had it that the elk was the spirit of an old mountain guide who had met a tragic end in a blizzard on that very cliffside. Now he wandered back and forth along the ledge, luring curious onlookers with his haunting, majestic form. People came from towns far and wide, enchanted by rumors of the ghostly elk who waited on the cliff’s edge. They’d drive up the road, and stare, mouths agape, hypnotized by the strange and beautiful creature. But as they stared, he would give a tilt of his head, like he was inviting them closer… just a little closer… And without realizing, they'd creep forward, caught in his gaze as if bewitched. The road sloped down, gravity pulling them toward that dizzying edge as if guided by an invisible hand. Mesmerized by the elk, they'd drift until there was nothing left beneath them but empty air. Some say that as they fell, they’d hear a low, mournful bellow echoing through the chasm, as if the elk was bidding them farewell. They never saw the bottom of Elk’s End. And if you go out there on a cold, clear night, you might just see the elk yourself—his great, spectral form glowing softly, waiting to lead one more soul down into the misty abyss.
