The whistle has been blown
The game begins
"Mine"
Yells your team mate
"Don't kick it to the other team control it"
Yells another

Half time
A refreshing orange builds up my energy

Back to the game
Kick, Heada, slip
The rain begins to pour down
Mud every where
Slip, Slide, Score
Tweet! the games over
We trudge back to the side line
A game well played
But I can't wait for a shower

An Icey night

Staring across the lake I see tiny flakes of snow floating around
Landing on the lonely frozen lake that has been forgotten for the night
Everyone is asleep, lost in there dreams
But not I
I am awake
Lost in my own thought
Looking at the sky
Feeling small
Under the beautiful blanket of the northern lights floating above
I grip my coat tightly and stand up
Ready to go home for a delicious soothing tea

My short story

I jumped on my bed finally home, I closed my eyes and when I opened them I wasn't in my room any more. Instead I was standing in front of a wall covered with green ivy and a big wooden door, I looked left and right down the wall but it just seemed to go on and on, I tried the door,  "locked" I sighed. All of a sudden an old rusty brass key fell in front of my feet. I picked  it up and tried it in the key hole. 'Click' a perfect fit, the door swung open and I walked through. On the other side of the wall it looked like It used to be some kind of temple but now it had moss and vines all over it. I found a set of stairs covered in ivy and started making my way up the stairs. At the top of the stairs there was a strange carpet. I was so tired so i lay down on it. All of a sudden the carpet began to rise, I quickly held on to the tips of the carpet clutching my stomach, the carpet began to rise up past the trees around the old ruins and started head towards the sun. The carpet started flying towards the stars I closed my eyes and hummed silently to myself. When I opened my eyes I was flying between the stars.I put out my hands and caught one, made a wish that no one shall know and lightly through it back into space. I  turned round and all of a sudden there was a bright light I realized I must of being flying towards the sun, though something was different it sounded as  if it was saying "wake up
wake up" I rubbed my eyes, I wasn't on my carpet anymore I was in my room with my mum sitting next to me. Then it hit me it had all been a dream.

Seasons

Summer is a season of fun and beaches
The sun is hot
Some times I wish its not
But the BBQ is sizzling
and the coke is fizzing
What could be better.

Of course Autumn comes rolling along
we can jump in leaves
or pretend to heave them in to forts like builders
The sunsets and trees
go together quiet nicely
till there's not one leaf in sight.

But the Winter comes
and layers frost and snow like blankets
Oh and we can build a snowman
so chuck that fan
for we need a fire
and mittens and three little kittens
all lying on my lap
having a little nap
till the snow melts of course.

Now the poppies are growing
we begin our hobbies
for Spring has come
and the flowers are blooming
we can spend hours filming
for they are a sight to be seen

Till Summer comes
and the cycle just goes on and on.

Paris

I went to Paris when I was nine and I will never forget it. there was flowers every were, everyone was so pleasant. I stayed in a hotel that was on the little island called Ile De La Cite  where the Notre dame is. The hotel was very cute it had so many stairs and cute little rooms it all so provided breakfast which was tea or Milo in a cute green teapot, baguette or toast with jam. The breakfast room was small but not stuffy, it had a small window that you could see the people of Paris walking by.

While I was in Paris I visited many special land marks such as the Eiffel tower, the Notra dame, the louvre , the ark and much more. we all so got many souvenirs such as paintings, music boxes, magnets, berets and more. If you love baguettes, croissants or bakery food you diffidently  should come to France they have the best I repeat the best bakery food I have ever tried.

I only spent five days in France but I could write hundreds of pages on my trip there I was very special to me and will never forget it.

My Pourquoi

How The little Macaw discovered Its Beautiful Colors

Once a long long time ago when the black and white macaws didn't have their beautiful colorful feathers, there lived a macaw called Quest. Quest was very sad because he always got teased by the other birds of the Amazon who were very pretty and colorful, but the little macaw always put up with it because whenever he couldn't handle it anymore, he would just fly home.

One day some mocking jays were telling Quest that he was useless and ugly. Quest was so insulted by this that he took off flying. Then it started to rain. The little macaw was so sad that he didn't realise how far he was flying. Suddenly the rain started to clear up, then he realized  it was getting a little colder. All of a sudden the little macaw stopped in the sky because just in front of him was the most beautiful  thing that he had ever seen; it had so many colors. He released it must be a rainbow. He was so happy that he was the first  bird of the Amazon to see a rainbow that he flew right through it,  jumped on it, and slid down it like a slide.

When  Quest landed on the ground, he realised that he was not in the Amazon anymore. He was in a damp forest with beautiful flowers and strange bushes. He jumped off the ground and started flying through the trees when he suddenly saw movement. He landed on the ground and started looking around. Suddenly a brown bird with little wings and a long yellow beak came out from a bush, and started talking in a strange language, saying “kia ora bro” and “kakariki”.  The macaw just stood there, not knowing what was going on. Next minute the strange bird told the macaw that he was a kiwi. He also told him that he had landed in a place called New Zealand . The strange bird then said something very surprising. He said that he really liked the macaws feathers. The macaw looked at his wings and let out a little gasp. His feather were all different colors, red, green and purple, and his body was a brilliant shade of red.

The macaw thought that it must of happened when he flew through the rainbow. He thought he needed to get back to the Amazon to show off his new look. He said thanks to the kiwi and took off. While he was flying he realised that something was on his neck. He looked down and on his neck was a green spiral necklace, with ‘Kia ora bro from Kiwi in New Zealand’ carved on it.The macaw flew on till he started to see the tips of the Amazon trees, and landed . The macaw was very happy when he landed. All the birds gasped. They started running up to him saying he looked magnificent, and some birds even apologized for teasing the little macaw about his looks. From that day on the macaw was one of the prettiest birds of the Amazon.

The wise old owl

There once lived a wise old owl who lived in a oak
The more he heard the less he spoke
the less he spoke the more he heard
why can't we all be like that wise old bird
