Nyani aliyekuwa chifu
Ursula Nafula
Isaac Okwir
Don alikuwa nyani mkubwa.
Alikuwa mchokozi.
Don ndiye alikuwa chifu wa nyani wengine.
Wafuasi wake walimpatia kitambaa maalum.
"Nitakivaa kichwani," Don alisema.
"Kila mmoja afuate masharti yangu. Msinihoji!"
Don alipiga kelele.
Wafuasi walimfuata chifu wao.
Don iliporuka, kila mmoja aliruka.
Lakini, kile kitambaa, kilimkaza sana.
Don aligusa kichwa alikoumia.
Nyani pia waligusa vichwa vyao.
"Hapa panuma," Don alisema.
Nyani pia walisema, "Hapa panauma."
Alisema, "Hii imekazika sana!"
Wao pia walisema, "Hii imekazika sana."
Don alianguka kutoka juu.
Wote walimuiga wakaanguka.
Nyani aliyekuwa chifu alikufa.
Wafuasi wake waliumia, lakini waliishi.
