New Friend


Tammy had just moved to Florida from Vermont, and she was scared. She was standing in the doorway of her new school Summer Flower Elementary, biting her lip.

"This is it," she thought. She started to walk in when she felt something push her. She fell to the ground hard.

"Get out of the way, noob," said a voice behind her.

She turned her head and saw a girl with shaggy hair and ripped clothes. Tammy started to cry. The bully walked away.

"Are you okay?" asked another voice.

"Yeah," said Tammy. She turned and saw a girl with light brown hair and a pretty blue dress.

"I'm Amy," she said. "That was Clarissa. Let's be friends."

"Sure!" said Tammy. "Let's give that bully a taste of her own medicine..."

  • Misty Morning

    Misty morning

    Sailing on the open sea early in the morning.

    The mist surrounds me.

    The wind is howling just like a wolf wood at the moon. 

     I fell free, gliding across the cobalt blue ocean staring at the sky
  • Bird

    Bird


    Flapping,

    Fluttering,

    Flying through the air,

    The warm breeze flowing through my feathers,

    The sweet smell of nectar fills the air,

    I swoop down to the flowers,

    I see buds on the trees,
  • Maple Syrup


    Maple Syrup

    Sugary water,
    dripping,
    dripping,
    Slowly filling up the buckets,
    Maple boiling,
    Until at last,
    Sugar,
    Slow moving,
    delicious,
    dropping onto your pancakes,
