Once upon a time, a Bat, a Thorn Bush, and a Seagull decided to work together. They wanted to start a business to sell two things: fabric from the Thorn Bush and bronze from the Seagull. The Bat, being a very rich creature, offered to lend the money they needed to start their business.
They loaded a large ship with their precious fabric and bronze and set sail across the wide sea. But oh, how the sea can be cruel! A terrible storm brewed up one day, throwing their ship against the rough waves. Despite their best efforts, the ship sank, taking all their business materials with it.
After the shipwreck, each of the partners reacted in a different way. The Bat, scared of facing the people he owed money to because of the lost business, decided to hide during the day. He thought if he only came out at night, he wouldn't have to face the others and the money he owed.
The Seagull, being a brave bird, didn't lose hope. He flew over the vast sea every day, tirelessly searching for the bronze that was lost.
The Thorn Bush, on the other hand, stayed rooted on the shore. Any piece of fabric that the sea washed up, he caught with his thorny branches, hoping to recover some of what was lost.
Their loss had changed them, shaping their behavior. The Bat now loved the night, the Seagull became a sea explorer, and the Thorn Bush clung onto every fabric it could.
Once upon a super fun time, there were three best buds: a Bat who was awesome at counting, a Seagull who loved flying around like a superhero, and a Thorn Bush that made really cool clothes. They thought, "Hey, why not become business partners and earn some cookie money!"
Bat said, "Hey, I'll front the cash, alright? We're gonna be big, like mega-blockbuster big!" High-fives all around! Well, sorta. The Thorn Bush tried but, ya know, prickly.
They filled a big, big boat with fancy cloth from Thorn Bush and shiny metal from Seagull. Off they went, sailing like pirates. But guess what? The ocean had a tantrum. It was like, "Nope, not today!" and splashed them like a giant bath toy.
Splash! Splash! Down went the boat and all their stuff was now at the bottom of the ocean—gone like a lost toy.
After that big splash, everyone felt kinda blue. Bat said, "No way, no day! If I only go out at night, no one can ask for their money back!" So he became a night-time adventurer, like he was in a forever game of hide-and-seek.
Seagull put on his brave face and said, "No biggie! I'll find our stuff or turn my feathers into pillows!" He flew high and low, looking for their shiny metal, like a birdie detective.
Thorn Bush stayed at the beach, arms wide open. Any cloth that the ocean gave back, he snagged with his prickly arms. "Gotcha!" he shouted, like he was playing the world's biggest game of tag.
And so, they each found a new groove. Bat reveled in his night-time adventures, turning darkness into his playground. Seagull became a day-time hero, flying high and low like a sky detective searching for buried treasure. Thorn Bush stood strong by the shore, catching whatever the tides would bring back, as if giving the ocean a high-five every single time.
Their challenges had shaped them, transforming them into versions of themselves they had never imagined but now wouldn't trade for the world.
Three pals, a Bat, a Bush, and Gull,
Dreamed of a business sure to pull.
With fabric fine and bronze so grand,
They'd be the richest in the land.
The Bat, with pockets deep and wide,
Said, "Friends, my wealth is on your side."
Upon a ship, they stashed their wares,
And sailed with hopes, through open airs.
But seas are fierce and skies are gray,
A storm arose and swept their way.
Despite their fight, the ship went down,
Their dreams dispersed, their hopes did drown.
Now each reacted not the same,
This storm had played a fickle game.
The Bat said, "Night will be my shield,
No debts to face, I'm in the field."
The Gull took flight with courage new,
Across the seas and salty blue.
In search of bronze, from dawn till dusk,
He flew and flew, in this he'd trust.
The Bush stood firm along the coast,
With thorny arms, a sturdy post.
Each wave that tossed some fabric near,
He grabbed it fast, to keep it clear.
This tale did shape them, come what may,
In work and hope, and night and day.
The Bat loves night, the Gull loves sea,
The Bush clings tight to what could be.
