Isolation

Standing on his porch, Ben drew breath. As the clean, cool air filled his lungs, a smile spread across his face because he was happy because it is peaceful.  Where he stood was far away from the Ocean, and as the sun shone over the lake, dissolving the foggy air he could catch a glimpse of the mountains, a sea of trees, the forest far beyond as the crispy air moved its way through it.  A House on a Rock surrounded by beauty is a border, no fisherman's around on a silent day.  As he looked up to the skies big thick clouds were forming and it began to get dark, the lake was a tranquil place as the sun was covered by a shadow.  Then one, two drops on Ben's face as the rain started pouring down hard.  He ran inside the shelter from the rain as the sound of the wind hurling outside blew strongly.  

Thinking to himself, why all of a sudden the weather had changed so quickly.  Looking outside his window he couldn't see anything beyond the lake but just the water making small waves.  ‘ Could it be a tornado brewing’ he said. 

He looked around the house to check if everything was stable. He taped the windows with duct tape just in case and he boarded the windows with wood.  Ben started worrying a solitary house would fall off the rock. So he got his radio and went under the table just in case it was a real tornado. This felt like a lockdown, living alone in the middle of the lake Ben stayed under the table while the rain and wind was blowing even harder.  An hour had passed and the rain slowly calmed down. Ben got out from the table and looked outside his window and saw everything had stopped moving Roughly. The waves calmed too. He looked up at the sky and saw the clouds shifting away and there a glimmer of the sun shone through, the rays of the sun light above his house. The weather was going to become beautiful again.

My Limerick Poem

There was a Magician from Shanghai

Who likes to eat apple pie

On each muggy day

The Magician would say

'Oh, how i miss Shanghai!'

Flying High

This was going to be another of his incredible adventures, and he couldn’t WAIT! to find out where it would take him. 

During the Afternoon, Jackson was on his family farm planting watermelon seeds as well as potatoes. While his parents were busy looking after the farm animals and cleaning the house. He was working and working until it was time for his break. Just as he was going to finish up his chores he spotted a GIANT fan and was curious to find out what it does. So Jackson went to look for his parents to find out that they were not home. They had left a letter on the table saying that they were going to the grocery shop to buy more flour and sugar. But Jackson was only 13 years old and had no idea what to do or would happen if he went to the strange fan. He was thinking, and thinking about what his parents would say if they were here. But that didn’t stop him from investigating the weird fan. He sat down and thought to himself, “why would there be a big fan in the middle of my farm”. He thought to himself “should I go? Should I stay?” He slowly stood up to ignore the fan, but somehow, wanting to find out where it would take him or do to him, took over him and his decision. So he went to go pack his stuff that he needed for his trip. He was very excited to see what it does. As he finished, he ran downstairs, out the door and straight towards the mysterious fan. His travel to the fan was not that long. It was only a 5 minute walk. When he got there, he saw a strange man on the floor eating the fruits from our farm. But he didn’t put much thought into him. He saw the big fan but was wondering “how will I get up there?”. Then he remembered, and looked at the man. He had asked “Excuse me Sir? Would you kindly give a hand in tossing me up in the fan?”. The strange man stopped eating, looked up and was staring at him. Then he said “Sure why not”. So he got up and told Jackson to hop on his hands, and Jackson did so. The man was counting to 3 making Jackson say what are you doing. When he said 3, he tossed Jackson up in the air and screamed at him saying “Have fun!”. Jackson got blown away to a place where it was dark and cold. When he got up, he couldn’t see anything and was really scared of the dark. He fell to the floor, curled up and started crying so hard that he should’ve just stayed home, until he heard a weird noise asking him “are you alright?”. Jackson opened up his eyes to see a bright light near his face and a man who was in his 40’s. Jackson asked the man if he knew a way out of here. The man was quiet for a second and replied “Yes I do”. So he helped Jackson up from the floor and said to him “follow me”. Jackson was happy and followed the strange man. As they were traveling they were getting to know each other, but at the same time Jackson’s family was looking for him while he was trapped in a dark tunnel with a man. As they were talking, the man stopped and told him we’re here. Jackson was happy and started running but stopped and told the man if he was coming as well. The man replied “Sorry Jackson but no. This place is my home”. So Jackson ran into the light and was running towards his home.
