  • TALKING SUNFLOWER

    by KARETTA

    On the first day of the spring there was a sunflower that talked. It had eyes with a pink mouth and a black nose. It was a very happy sunflower; always having a smile on her face. The only words you heard were “don’t worry … be happy.” Always singing Ariana Grande and Ed Sheeran. Her favorite songs were “Love Me Harder” and “Thinking Out Loud.” She also occasionally loved singing Sam Smith “I’m Not the Only One.” Anyway the flower started hopping around, as she was going she meets a rabbit.

  • LITTLE CATERPILLAR

    by ARIEANNA

    I see a little caterpillar at the park. This little caterpillar is black and reddish orange. I named him Jermamy. He was very fuzzy. I disturbed him from his walk in the park. I picked him up with lovely stick. Then he fell. And scared me. Then me and my sister got into a huge fight, and the caterpillar ran away. I hurried and grabbed him before he could go further. Then I picked him up and put him down in the park. He was swirling,  and I thought he died. He was spitting stuff out and so I put him back in the mulch. I turned my head, and he was crawling fast! Away. I was sad, but I can imagine how scared he must’ve been. It’s okay. I let his fuzzy self go!

  • HERO

    by SIERRA

    A 13-year-old girl stands on top of a 24-floor building. She looks down at the crowd of people, then she closes her eyes and reflects on the eighth-grade lifestyle she had to go through. The names they called her—b****, fishy, and many more names that made her shed a tear. As she took a breath to look up at the beautiful sky, she was in tears. She stood at the edge and her head was held high and his arms spread wide. Then she fell off that building. Out of clear blue sky, a man jumped out the 16th floor window with a group of dancers called the D.A.R. One of the people jumped out and caught her in mid-air. It was amazing it was like she was Elastic Girl or Mr. Fantastic. But she wasn’t. She was an ordinary girl who landed on her feet.

    That’s a hero.

  • BILLY

    by CHELSEA

    I was a normal person. Every night I had dreams. And in these dreams there was a door with a diamond knob. I kept dreaming of this door, until one day I woke up in this dark room that had a light shining on a red door and a diamond knob, just like my dreams. So I opened the door and walked in. Then the room spun, and when it stopped there was no more door. I was tied down with a gun to my head. So as I sat there, I realized this isn’t a trap, it’s a sick game.

  • ANGEL

    by JAMMONICA

    You’re like an angel. When you smile. When you laugh it’s so beautiful, When you’re sad or mad it breaks me like my wings have fallen. You know how to make me laugh. You call me a weirdo only because what I do or say is weird or funny. I might have such silly things to say it’s only because I want you to laugh or smile. But when you’re around, my wings begin to spread and fly again. My wings fly away from that darkness. Sometimes we fight but sometimes we’ll get over it. You’re like the only person that I know that loves pizza. We have such the weirdest nicknames for each other. But I like that it’s like having an angel’s halo rise again.
