On the edge of the forest there were six garden gnomes and two beautiful dogs. They lived on a big porch and garden that belonged to Lady Cheryl. They had an idea. Most of the time they sat in the sun and didn't say much, however, they had heard that Snow White was in trouble in the forest. They had found out that a wicked queen had heard that she was no longer the most beautiful lady in the land. Her Honest Mirror had told her the truth. It had told her that her husband's daughter, Snow White was the most beautiful in the land. She didn't take that news very well and sent little Snow White to live out in the forest all by herself. She wanted no one else to be more beautiful than she was.
The garden gnomes didn't like that at all so they all had a meeting and had come up with a plan. It was a plan that the smallest little girl gnome, Miss Verity, was not in favor of. She worried that something might go wrong and the gnomes could get lost or hurt. She listened as Jace and Jaydon talked to Namji who always wore a red hat. Garder, the little gnome that attended the plants that Lady Cheryl put on her porch was also listening to the plan that the two beautiful dogs had come up with. They wanted to rescue Snow White and find Prince Charming. They thought that Snow White would be so very happy being his wife.
They came up with the idea that Jebkor would wear a disguise of some black sunglasses and go into the forest first. No one would recognize him with sunglasses on or so they thought. They decided that the others would follow him.
Murkow, who always wore a purple hat, was to go closely behind him and hide under a toadstool. The others, would follow safely after them. Jace and Jaydon were to go out on the lawn to make sure that Lady Cheryl didn't notice that the gnomes were gone. They would be on guard until Snow White was safely rescued. They sat very close together to make sure that all was going well.
In the forest, Snow White was sad. She didn't know why her step-mother, the queen didn't like her. Snow White was not only beautiful on the outside, but was a beautiful soul on the inside. She could be happy and loving no matter where she lived. Oh, the animals and the birds in the forest loved her! The birds would fly close by and sing to her. Snow White would sing right back; then they would laugh. Her laughter and singing could be heard far away. She would stop and smell the beautiful flowers. They were so pretty and smelled so good. The bees and the tiny humming birds followed her as well. The forest creatures were so glad that she was there, but they had all gotten together for a meeting too, just like Jace and Jaydon and the gnomes. They needed to protect Snow White from that wicked queen. They had a plan!
"The forest is a wonderful place to live," thought Snow White. "I just don't understand why the Queen doesn't like me." Snow White looked around her and realized that she had so many friends here that she just wasn't going to worry about it and sat down under a tree and fell asleep.
Snow White had more friends than she knew, because the last gnome who was wearing a yellow hat, Zarast, had just gotten through Lady Cheryl's fence and had arrived in the forest.
Garder and Miss Verity decided that they would stay and help Jace and Jaydon keep watch. There was another gnome that no one knew about but the queen. He lived in the castle.
*****************
Oh my, everyone has a plan. I hope that they all can keep Snow White safe. Maybe Prince Charming might find Snow White and everyone can go home. We shall see next time...

The message is clear in this story. You can be happy no matter where you live. Those Garden Gnomes have always made me feel that they are in fact, magic. I love them.
ReplyDeleteGnomes are so adorable, each with a special personality. Just like people special in their own way. And yes The old saying home is where you hang your hat is so true. It is what you make of it.
ReplyDeleteThat's for sure . You can make it bad or make it a wonderful place.I was worried when I moved so far away from my family.
