Zommet

🌀WibWob Tricks

Beetle Nodes

Shell Piano

Nobody has ever seen Zommet.

You only notice a leaf shaking

after the wind has left.

Zommet wandered along with a

pine needle stuck behind one ear.

brrrrr.

A leaf wiggled its pointy elbows.

Zommet stopped.

So did the leaf.

"Huh."

A mushroom stood nearby

wearing a mossy beret.

brrrrrrrr.

The mushroom shivered.

A beetle on top bounced

three blueberries high.

"Again."

Zommet obliged.

Farther along, a hollow log was

napping with its mouth open.

brrr.

Nothing.

brrrrrr.

Still nothing.

Zommet tilted its head.

brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

BWOOOOOM.

Zommet jumped.

The log hummed on.

Another log answered from

somewhere uphill.

Then a puddle grew rings.

A spiderweb danced a jig.

Three daisies shook pollen into

the afternoon.

A bee came out yellow.

It looked at Zommet.

Zommet looked elsewhere.

Around the bend, a vine stretched

between two trees.

brrrrrrrr.

The vine wobbled everywhere.

Zommet changed its hum.

Suddenly the vine made three

enormous loops.

Between them, two spots barely

moved.

A beetle climbed onto each one.

One unfolded a napkin.

The other poured tea.

WHAP WHAP WHAP.

Not a drop spilled.

Zommet nodded.

"Good seats."

Near the creek, six empty shells

were lined up on a rock.

Zommet hummed.

One answered.

Then another.

Then another.

BWING.

BWOONG.

BRRROOM.

A crab hurried over carrying a

tiny baton.

Nobody had hired a conductor.

This did not matter.

By sunset, the whole creek

was humming.

Zommet sat down beside the

quietest rock.

brrrrr.

Nothing.

Zommet smiled.

Some things apparently had

other plans.

The moon smiled upside down.

The earth whispered, "Wheee."

And there are popsicles on

Thursdays.

Different wiggle

Different hello
