Snow King

It was very difficult for King Coby to get his daughter married.

He had already got a number of eligible kings and princes to his palace.

But, Princess Sazy just wouldn’t agree.

They had to first complete her task, which everyone failed miserably.

How could anyone make it snow in peak summer?

But, King Coby knew something magical was about to happen when a dashing stranger walked in seeking Sazy’s hand.

He mesmerized everyone, including Sazy, by his looks, voice and eyes!

“It is snowing! We are all feeling cold!”

“Brrrr…” everyone shivered.


Princess Sazy reached out for her coat.

  1. Clever suitor. You don't need to make it snow, just make believe that it is. I foresee a great career for him as a ruler

  4. Sure, it can snow in midsummer! I lived in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for a couple of years. Snowed on my daffodils in May, froze in August. No magic involved :)

  9. Yes, well, at the moment we're surrounded by politicians who tell us that when we take back control from the European Union it will be perpetual summer with picnics in the park. There's always plenty of people who will believe a charismatic speaker.
    I've been hypnotized frequently as part of therapy. It requires willing co-operation from the person being hypnotised, but it's very effective.
