Zephyr the Zany Zebra
No one enjoyed life more than Zephyr.
He romped after the gazelles and tried to mimic their leaps and bounds.
He trudged behind the elephants and copied their stomping and trumpeting.
He crept around the pride of lions and imitated their head shaking and throaty growl.
All in all, Zephyr was an outstanding impersonator and an entertaining comedian. That made him a very popular guy, because Zephyr, bless his sweet heart, made all the other creatures laugh, even those he impersonated so well.
We know how important laughter can be in this tough old world. I hope some of my challenge posts gave you a giggle and others made you think a bit.
If you read most of these posts this month, which one was your favorite?

Hi Pat .. I used Zephyr as the Wind, and Zdena Zebra this year .. but yours is the best – loved it – laughter is the best medicine .. and that’s what makes the world go round…
Congratulations and I’ve loved them all .. cannot possibly select now – or ? ever!!!
They are great stories and I sure hope you’ll do something with them … Cheers Hilary
So much to learn from all of your characters. Congratulations on a challenge well done!
That they did! Thanks for making the a-z interesting and fun.
We could all use more Zephyrs in our life. I loved your stories and can’t even pick a favorite. I agree with lizy that you should put these together as a children’s book!
Your posts have helped me through the month, Pat, and I do hope you’re going to put them all together in a children’s book! Well done on finishing the challenge! We did it!!!
Oh I like Zephyr! I’m mad for zebras and this is a particularly nice one. Hmmm… fave animal this month – I think it has to be Sylvester the Sloth. I liked his particular insistence on doing things his way!
Ahh very happy to have met Zephyr. Very much the life of the party. But I’m going to miss everyone, Pat, even Yolanda and Xander – I’ll reconsider about having them as road trip companions. I’m sure we could learn a lot from each other 😉
Truly it has been wonderful reading your posts this entire month of April, Pat. I wish you all the best in your next project and happy writing.
I have really enjoyed your posts they are all good. Thanks for a good month,
Yvonne.
You put a smile on my face today. What a wonderful way to start the morning! Thanks for this delightful post.
We do need laughter.
Very much enjoyed your life lessons stories!
Pat – Oh, I’ve richly enjoyed your posts this month. Really I have. I think I feel saddest for Rebecca the Respectful Rabbit, who never gets the attention she should, and I give you ‘clever credit’ for Nadine the Naughty Newt. But really, they’re all absolutely terrific. What a creative way to do this challenge!
