Christina's Poems

A Sight

I sit in the valley

The wind blows my hair.

The sun is brightly shining

It's rays flowers share.

The sun then goes down

It's the dark that I fear.

I hear a strange howl

And see glowing eyes stare.

I start to feel panicked

I know not what to do.

I run towards a light

While mud steals my shoe.

I keep on running

Despite my sudden loss.

Eventually I stumble

Into some thick moss.

I scratch and I claw

Until I get through.

Where I see a small house

It's windows are few.

I feel overwhelmed

Not from fright.

As I am quite happy

And surely a sight.

When my parents moved us to a house located in the middle of nowhere, I used to fear I would get lost walking through the dense forest.  After seeing a wolf while my parents drove down the gravel road to get to our house, I decided to write this poem for fun.
