The Prawn and the Crab
A beautiful Prawn fell in love with a handsome Crab. They were mad about each other so she went home to tell her family. Prawn’s father was not happy about it at all. “We know nothing about that Crab and don’t even know where he lives.” He said, “On top of that, Crabs are just ridiculous looking animals. They cannot even walk straight. They just go from side to side. No. You are not going to go out with him. Tell him not to come around here!”
Prawn went Crab’s house under the big rock and told Crab what had happened. “My Dad says you are just silly looking animals. It is true that you can only walk sideways, but I do love you and I don’t want to give up on you. Why not come to our house tonight and meet my family. I will get my Dad to get a special drink for you, ‘Seaweed & Tonic’. Come tonight at six!!
That evening at six, all of the Prawns were sitting there waiting. Crab arrived, parting the seagrass. He came straight to the Prawn. Not side to side, he was walking in a straight line! Unbelievable! Little Prawn went up to Crab and said, “Oh Crab! You are so handsome. Oh! You are so wonderful and you are walking in a straight line!” Crab whispered in Prawn’s ear and said, “Shhhh! Keep quiet, I’m pissed!”
