Crows squawking innocently, but who knows if they did something nasty beyond my eyesight? Steam rises up in the air as we breathe, vanishes into the brisk air even before I blink my eyes. Leaves rustling in the wind, small but still alive, sacrificing themselves for the big old tree. Nobody notices, but I do. by Jin Sagong (Grade Four) Lord Tennyson Elementary School Vancouver, British Columbia |
