Chirpy

So there I was, with  my family walking home from a fancy dinner at a restaurant. Everything seemed normal. As my little brother and I were scampering home I noticed, as I peeked through the window, that the cat was trying to get something from underneath the couch. So my brother and I walked in through the door as silent as an anaconda so we wouldn't bother the cat. Then suddenly right out of the blue bang! A mysterious black object emerged from under the couch.


The unknown object zoomed up to the roof like the time I was chased by a ram in one of my dreams. Then something fell off the object.  It was a leg then I realized it was bird. Then I remembered the mouldy bread in the cupboard. So I quickly grabbed it, through it out the door and the bird was gone. But the cat was still going ballistic.


Huh! Wow, it was all a dream. Was it an awfully crazy dream or was it nightmare? Well, good thing it wasn’t real … or was it? Dun dun dunnn.

Autumn at waimairi school

Leafs lay limp

And pile in a mountain

Feeling crusty like wontons,

Rustling through the wind.


Flowers drown in on-and-off showers,

Looking dead and sad,

Drooping down to the ground.


People stomp in muddy puddles

Making tsunamis in tiny puddles

Swarming around people's shoes.


Mud spreads across the grass like butter on toast.

Smell mashed grass mixes with various things and

Smudges on people playing sports.


Rain dribbles on my face and drips in to my shoes

Feel  dew drops shiver down my spine

Goose bumps overwhelm me.


Wind gusts through the bushes and

Seeing the branches dance

As beauty fills the air.


But one bunch of flowers bloom in no notice

Smells more perfect than last nights dinner

As walking past the sign of spring in this leafy mine field.
