Another of E-slop's Phables

The Lost Sheep

Once there was a not-so-little girl who lost her sheep. She went looking for Dojo (for thus was her sheep named) and while she was looking for him, Viv fell into a deep hole and got her dress dirty. Using her magic lasso she pulled herself out of the deep, dark hole, and made her way homewards where she found Dojo waiting for her. *GaRoWL* Thanks to Azar for the invention of that all-around great GaRoWL. :)

The Moral of This Phable Is:

Always carry a magic lasso in your purse like Wonderwoman and Viv.

Alternate Moral:

Watch for holes in the road.

Alternate Alternative Moral

Put bells on your sheep so that you know the location of it by the ringing of the bell, which doesn't cost that much as bells can be found relatively cheaply and save you the time and energy of chasing after sheep (for SOME reasons *GaRoWL* Viv!) and also the extra expenses of repairing tears and stains made to clothing by falling into holes like our unfortunate Viv, which fate she could easily have averted by carrying a lantern or a flashlight, depending upon the period wherein our Phable takes place, but as we don't know that we should just say "a light," which is broad enough to encompass a parking lot light, or just a teeny little lightning bug, one of those things that light up in the summer months, and that die if you put them into jars to try and capture the light, especially if you don't punch holes into the lid, which said punching can ruin your mother's best containers and also earn you a spanking with a rod or belt, or even a stick would work I guess, and sticks can be readily obtained from trees, which some people know but don't you ever take sticks from a bird's nest because then you're harming the future generation of birds and probably endangering the species for life which could get you put into jail for a long, long time I hope because that's the only place for animal wreckers like you that take it upon themselves to fiddle with the animal population, and then wonder why the grizzly and polar bears, not to mention all wolves and coyotes, devour humans in an attempt to remove human rubbish from the landfills of the earth, for which act they get nothing but ingratitude and shots in the head, forming quite a ghastly story.

The End!
