Gambling In the Forest

Gambling in the forest took on a whole new flavor today. The princess Adrianna joined us, bringing dice to the fray. We shook them and threw them, hoping for the big win. Antlered deer had trouble, his hoofs are so thick, not thin. Barn owl came to join us, he likes red apples too. We congratulated him on his flight and the way he flew. Antlered deer asked us to give him another roll, please. We said okay, but the dice flipped over against the breeze. He is cheating! The spoiled pointy-hatted princess yelled. An arrow came by, but it was quickly diverted and felled. Gambling in the forest is great! Said the rabbit up high. All I want is one apple the deer said with a cough and sigh.
