Guy the Dinosaur

Now Guy the dinosaur was a leaf eating herbivore who was afraid to ask girls to dance. So he stood alone by the tree while others frolicked with glee but Guy would not take up the chance. His legs numbered four but he would not dance on the floor no matter the music or song. As the other dinosaurs would tease as much as they pleased and make him feel like he didn't belong. Now the worst of the bunch was a T-Rex named Crunch who seemed brutish, nasty and rude. He would make fun of poor Guy for being so shy and make up stories that were not even true. So Guy leaned on a branch while watching the dinosaurs dance and pondered on what he should do. And decided right there... it was time to declare to be bolder. But how?... He hadn't a clue. Now Crunch's best girl was named Betty McSwirl and no one dared to even give her a glance. But Guy walked on over to where she stood in some clover and politely asked if she wanted to dance? Betty said yes and the the other dinosaurs prepared for the mess thinking poor Guy was soon to be toast. But there was no speaking of dread as Crunch quietly said. 'Well done my friend.
