The Tricycle

The is the story of a tricycle that was abandoned in the autumn breeze. A little boy had been riding it when he suddenly became hungry for candy corn and left his beloved tricycle out in the cold autumn weather. He was compleltey unaware of this, seeing that it was too advanced for his young mind and candy corn was not.
You may be wondering what came of this abandoned tricycle. A very strong wind suddenly came, blowing it down the hill and into the fast moving creek. It was swept away and the little boy never saw it again for a very long time.
He had returned to his parents house after college with his fiance and was taking a walk with her by the creek. As they walked, the young man saw something caught in the branches of a fallen tree by the creek's edge. He walked over and pulled it out. "What is it?" his fiance asked.
"I do believe that it is my old tricycle," he replied, setting it on the ground. "I lost it when I was four years old!"
He and his fiance made their way back to the house and in his hand was the tricycle he had lost those many years ago.
The End.

  1. Nice story! Finding something that has been long-lost or that you have forgotten about brings back unexpected memories.
