Hi, Well, it would sound fine in the right context, but you'd have to work hard to create such a context. When and where do you think you might say such a thing? Best wishes, Clive

Hi,

Yes. A story is a clever context, because we often use present tense to tell a story. Say it this way, all in present tense.

A boy is standing before a window. He sees a tree. There is a monkey in it..

Then , he looks under the tree. An old man is sitting there.

Best wishes, Clive
