Awakening the...

I was walking down 8th Street when, all of a sudden, I saw a glowing light. As I got closer the light got brighter and brighter until I couldn’t look at it anymore. I found an old pair of sunglasses in my pocket so I used them to see.

    “AWAKEN ME!” yelled a voice coming from the glowing light. “AWAKEN ME OR ELSE YOU’LL REGRET IT!” the voice yelled again.

    “Who are you? And why should I free you?” I asked.

    “NOW!!!!” yelled the voice.

Then I saw a lever and if you know me, I love pushing buttons and levers. I was so tempted to push the lever. But when I did, there was huge explosion that blasted me away.

    “I’M FREE!” the voice happily said.

It was a man. He looked like one of those gods in those Percy Jackson books.

    “Thank you, young man,” he calmly said and then left, with no trace of him at all.

    “You’re welcome,” I said before he left. “You’re welcome.”

  • 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,
