Realism and Fantasy

A realistic story tells about something that could happen in REAL life.

A fantasy has somethings that could happen and some things that could NOT happen.

Here is a small text in which you can find some fantastic things, and some realistic things.

WHAT IF?

By Paula Aitchetson.

I don´t think I´d like it

Beneath the ocean waves.

All those scary creatures,

Hiding in dark cave.

What if I met
A whale or a shark?

What if I got lost

All alone in the dark.

What if a monster

Was hiding down there?

Waiting to jump out

And give me a scare.

What if an octopus

Grabbed at my legs?

What if I stood

On the monster´s eggs?

What if a jellyfish

Sat on my head?

I think I´ll just stay here

Safe in my bed.

Did you notice that this is a poem? What kind of rhyming do you see here?

Love
