After it ran with the 60 mph winds to its hearts content, the tiny tiny boulder came to a skilled landing on a rock in the woods. It threw its head to the sky and laughed with sheer joy, then slunk down under a larger boulder and sat down to a tea with a family of mice. Mother Mouse: “Oh tiny tiny boulder, you’re just in time! And you’re damp from the driving rains!” Tiny tiny boulder: “Oh, I forgot about the damp. My moss and lichen love the water so!” Young Mouse: “This tea is so yummy! I want to hang-glide in the rain though!” Mother Mouse: “You stay in here or you’ll get eaten by a hawk in no time flat! I mean it!” Young Mouse: “Eaten by a hawk! Eaten by a hawk! There are no hawks out in this hurricane!”
