The Sun Reflects Off The Lake
by Aria A.
The sun reflects off the lake
sending light across my face
I drink while others splash
our fur moist and discolored
no humans in sight as they hide from us
The sky warps with color
shadows slowly grow
sending darkness across my face
I walk while others drive
our fur cold and dry
no humans in sight
as they hide from us
The moon reflects off the windows
sending light into our homes
I watch TV while others sleep
our fur warm and bright
humans outside
as we are home
I Came Home
by Charlotte O.
I came home from a long
day at the coffee shop.
Bad shift.
My wife made gluten free
dairy free
sugar free
delicious dinner.
We gather around the table
“No carabeaners at the table.”
I tell my kid.
Sorry, Mom. Mother pass the
matcha.
Grayson has something
to say
tears well in her eyes.
Mom and Mother
I don’t know how to
say this,
I’m straight.
I Open The Door to Somewhere Else
by Matthew E.
I open the door to
somewhere else and I
entered Barnes
and Noble
tot he books aisle. It was
empty because it had
closed for the night.
After exploring the
store, I opened the next
door and I see the
city which was bright
and orange, lots of cars
and some people walking
the streets. The third
door leads me to my
high school. Looking at the halls
it was dark
and scary but I got
to see what going to
school at dark feels
like. The fourth door
leads me to my sister’s
school aka my once
elementary and middle school.
It was very emotional
for me to look
at hoe much it has
changed since I was
still there. The fifth
doors take me to
a LEGO tore.
It has some sets
I am interested
in buying next and has
the build your figure
area. After exploring
my fave places, it
was time for me
to enter the sixth
and final door: my
bedroom. I happily
jumped in my bed
and thought about how
much fun I had opening
each door that takes
me to my favorite places.
