Found Flower

Isn't it pretty, Mama
she said.
A fake flower in her hand.



Agreement was easy,
clarification difficult.

Pretty but fake
I huffed as I walked.

What does that mean:
fake,
Mama?




Something that isn't
really real.

Well, why would someone
put a fake flower

Maybe they wanted something pretty there.
They might have wanted to fool others.. Who knows!

Oh!
They want to trick people

A clue?
What kind of clue?

Maybe they are trying to leave

a clue.



And now I need
to find
the next one.




Oh?
Well, we're almost home.

Oh, Mama!
The next one
...will be in our HOUSE!





Newly, my little detective.
Her latest series: A to Z Mysteries. She's on Q! ^_^

I wonder
where
the next clue will be!
