The Amusement Park

Screams fill the air
But not the spine-tingling kind,
The thrilled, excited, butterflies kind
The whole place smells like
Candy and pizza and smoke
But it’s good.
The rickety wooden coasters inch up
Every hill
And then begin
To fall.

National Book Festival

The alarm startles me
Awake.
Today is the day.
Today is the
National Book Festival.
My love for
Books is pretty
Strong.
This festival is a place
Where I can let
My inner nerd
Reign free.
I’m very excited.
I’m also very tired.
But I’m excited.

Wash Tape Notebook

This notebook is fun and only takes 20 minutes. It is made using brightly colored wash tape or duct tape. Just find any folder, notebook, or journal and make a tape pattern. I really enjoyed the overall effect!

Fall

I see the bold colors on trees.
I hear the rustle of leaves.
I smell the rain on the pavement.
I feel the chill of the breeze.
I taste the thick, autumn air.

It is here.
It is fall.

Monsters

Creepy crawlies
Spooky shadows
Dusty walls
Dripping red
In the closet
Creaking doors
Turning knobs
Under beds
Monsters are coming.
Boo.

Meadow

Soft pink petals

Tufts of green

A dreamy meadow

Means peaceful sleep.

Class Schedule

I’m dying on the inside. Everybody knows their homerooms. Classes. But I’m clueless. I’m anxious. I’m waiting. I can’t wait. I’m excited and scared. I need my schedule. Well, not literally. But I’m so ecstatic to know, I’m sitting on the edge of my seat. It’s almost here. My class schedule.

Book Page Sign

  
This sign is simple to make. You just cut book pages into shapes and glue them onto a piece of paper. You can cut different shapes and overlap to make the cool background effect. Then you can write whatever you like! This takes half an hour, and is great for hanging on doors or walls.

Empty Room

White walls

No furniture

Just empty space

Nothing

No one

In this lonely place

I sit down

Not knowing

What to do

I’m sad

I’m scared

Of this empty room

Fear Landscape

Eight little legs scuttling along.

The airbag explodes with a bang.

A jagged cliff with rapids down below.

Dirt piles onto the coffin, screams still emitting from the box.

The small metal box that begins to close.

An elevator plummets, four stories at a time.

Flames lick the building, burning everything inside.
