Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Sailing: 45 of 50
The wind is blowing just fast enough, To guide a sailboat without the waves being rough. Setting the sails so they can blow in the air, Watching as the shoreline begins to disappear. I let the water guide me to where I want to be, The wind as my compass-the world is what I want to see. More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Walking in the fog: 101 of 112
A white layer of unclear air- It just sort of - hangs there, Filling up a portion of the earth's atmosphere. I can't see left-can't see right-can't see anything far or near, The fog begins to lift and everything becomes clear, Accept for one thing-how did I get here? More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Snow: 190 of 207
When snow falls, The winter calls. Time for snowmen to be built, Time for sledding down the hill, Making angels in the snow, Making white fluffy balls to throw. Then by the end of the day, As the light begins to slip away, The day becomes darker and the wind colder too, You think of the hot chocolate waiting at home for you. More..
Arts & Humanities > Thoughts on Writing Deciding between more or fewer characters in your story: 12 of 13
The more the merrier I say! How many characters should you put into a story?- that depends on your story. I like stories with a lot of characters, but only if the characters have a place in the story. A Young Adult series I like, Clearwater Crossing, has eight main characters, all of which are viewpoint characters. Jenna, Pe... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: The sky: 118 of 120
The sky is out of reach-it's not something I can easily touch, Like many things-mostly like your love. There are many things-so many things I hold dear, Inside my heart-always a place for you here, Unrequited-that's what this is-so I must try, To win your love-as if I have touched the sky. More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Snakes: 60 of 61
Snakes slither and they hiss, Be careful, some snakes are poisonous. Some are black, some are green, some are red, Some snakes are friendly, some we dread. Some snakes can make good pets and have a place in the home, Me, I'll stick to reading about them and leave those slippery creatures alone. More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Dogs: 177 of 177
"Throw the ball!" she calls with a pleading look, How can I say no?-with those eyes I'm immediately hooked. "I'm hungry!"-it's time for her meal, Of course she wants what I'm having-something real! Bow-wow!-she's just a made a friend-a boy, Now there are five little puppies filling my heart with joy. It could be a black lab,... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Paris: 34 of 34
Paris is someplace I haven't been-someplace I'd like to be, The Eiffel Tower is the first site I want to see. I'd sit outside at a small French and write-yes, I would, I'd even learn to speak French, learning every word I could. More..
Creative Writing > Short Stories Short stories: Dog stories for children: 15 of 15
~~MY FRIEND, TOBY~~ "Mom, I'm going over to JJ's!" I called. "Be home for dinner!" Mom called back. I let the screen door slam behind me as I ran barefoot down the driveway. On the right side of the street was Mr. Franklin's white house. He was sitting in a wooden rocking chair on his front porch reading a newspaper. "Welcom... More..
Hobbies & Games > Kids Games & Toys Game reviews: Battleship: 10 of 10
Battleship is a great game of skill and strategy for two players. And, as with anything else, a little bit of luck. Types of ships: Aircraft Carrier (this is the biggest ship in the fleet with 5 spaces to hit) Battleship (4 spaces) Cruiser (3 spaces) Submarine (3 spaces) Destroyer (the smallest ship in the fleet with 2 space...
