Pile of Dirt

I was out for my afternoon walk when I came upon the pile of dirt.

The pile of dirt said, “I would give anything to be able to walk around like you.”

I aim to please, so I tucked in my shirt, grabbed handfuls of dirt, and filled the inside my shirt until all the dirt was off the ground. It was difficult to get my balance at first, but soon I walking.

After about a half hour I pulled open the neck of my shirt and asked the pile of dirt how it was doing.

The pile of dirt said, “Could you go a little faster?”
