Three Color Inspired Pieces

Haiku

·         On my mermaids tail

I found a piece of skin, and

My life was complete

 

·         I love hearts of gold

Silver is just not enough

Gold is my treasure

Boo Sky

                I wake up to a bright light in my eyes, the sun. Its rays are almost painful to stare at, so I stir from my bed forcefully. Although groggy, and annoyed at my rude awakening, I manage to crawl into the shower for thirty minutes, and snag a snack as I walk out the door, ready to start my day.

                I’m sixteen, but I don’t have a car, or even a license. My parents told me that its too dangerous to drive at my  age and handed me a skateboard with a dorky helmet. Although its not as bad as it seems because I still get where I need to go. This town is small, so my school is only half a mile away.

                As the sun shines bright into my eyes I push on, leaving a trail from my wheels on the dusty sidewalk. There is hardly a cloud in the bright blue sky and the birds are singing loud as I pass them on my way to school. I stop to walk across a large ditch that seperates the town from my suburban neighborhood, when all of the sudden I feel a drop, and then another. The drops start to come in groups and all of the sudden its pouring rain, while the sun still shines on.
