This is a story
About a 
Chipmunk 
Who has Wings.
He is unique 
In every way.
He can do all 
Sorts of Things.

All the animals
In his neighborhood
Just like him,
Want to take flight.
So the flying chipmunk
Decided to teach them 
Day and Night.

This Chipmunk's 
Name is Darold.
Can perform 
A stunt or two.
He flies straight up
And soars straight down
Does best when 
The sky is blue.

Darold is so patient
With the cats and 
Dogs in town.
They try to take 
Off in flight
But some of them 
Fall down.

The rabbits are 
Slow to take off
Their ears get 
In the way.
They changed their minds
Took off their wings
And went back into 
The fields to play.

So Darold, the chipmunk
Who has wings,
Went back up 
Into the skies.
If you listen close,
You can tell that 
He's singing 
When he flies.

He twirls and dives,
He floats and lands
With the greatest 
Of ease.

With every 
Chance he gets
As unique as he is
Will be gliding 
In the breeze.

Thank you, Everybody, that has read my story. There is a little history to this story. I originally wrote this story for a project in English class in Middle School. I never saved the original (gave it to a little first grader in my school) and so I had to depend on my memory banks to remember the story. All I know is that my own mother thought it was fantastic back when I originally wrote it, and so now you have this. I hope that more of you will read it and be blessed. CM

Thank you for this. It reminds of a story I once heard of a bird that got stuck in a barn. A little boy felt very sorry for the bird because he knew the bird would die if he could not get him out of the barn. The boy made a wish and he became a bird. The boy/bird led the trapped bird out of the barn.The only what that he could lead the bird to safety was to become a bird. The little boy's name was Jesus.Thank you.

I love this children's poem and story. A flying chipmunk will definitely ignite a child's mind and imagination.
