Story 182
The Missing Link
When Rocksanne tried to swim,
Led boots made her sink.
When she tried to wink,
She could only blink.
When she tried to think,
Her brain was on the blink.
She couldn't even tell red from pink.
The poor girl was even troubled learning to drink.
Change: lead to led.
Story 183
The Inct Precinct
A dine-a-saur is extinct.
An animal thought is instinct.
A brief, to-the-point word is succinct.
A sharp color is distinct.
A blurry color is indistinct.
And a chain is simply linked.
Change: dinosaur to dine-a-saur.
