Moon Myths

Moon Myth
One warm night there was a town sleeping. The moon was right above the town in the sky. Then suddenly the small thin string gave up on holding the moons it broke. The net morning the town was wondering why the moon was asleep on the ground.
“ Wake up moon ,’’ Shouted the town Mayor.
“ Why am I on the ground?”, the moon asked the Mayor.
"Your string broke moon”, said the Mayor.
“We could get some wings,’’ moon said back to the Mayor.
“ No actually,’’
the Mayor told moon. “ We will put you on a big thick strong rope,’’
“Men get the rope!’’ shouted the Mayor.
“Are you sure this is going to work Mr Mayor?’’ asked the moon.
“Yes I’m sure moon’’ said the Mayor.
“ Turn around so I can see your back moon’’ said the Mayor tying the string to the moon's back.
“Ok done’’ the Mayor said proudly. “ Yay yay! Thank you Mr Mayor !’’, said the moon. And that’s how the moon stays in the sky.
The End.
