This week for writing we have been writing about a picture. We had to choose to be one of the characters in the picture or the person taking the picture. Here is the picture that I wrote about. Who do you think I am being?
WALT: Write interesting sentences to describe.
Finally the day was here, I can't take it anymore.
He was lonely and scared. It wasn't fair he was in the cold, raining, stormy weather and he couldn’t stay inside because he was too big. I put him on the the leash and took him home. It was really hard for me, I thought that the tears would of come out but they stayed in. I was tired at 5km into the walk. I wished he was smaller so I could fit him into the car as the 10k walk was so hard. I had to pull him the whole way. He was lazy!
I talked to him the whole way. It felt like every time I said I will miss you he got sadder. I looked up and I could barely see through the fog. When I walked into the zoo all I could see was two Giraffes staring at me. At that point I knew that it was the parents. Tears ran down my face, some happy, some sad. I put him in the gate and took him off the leash. I knew that I could come and visit any time so I said goodbye to my yellow and brown spotted friend .
Kia ora Pyper,
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful piece of writing, you hooked me in as a reader and I felt emotional too. I think you are the little girl giving your pet Giraffe back to the Zoo and it's parents. 10km would be a very long way to walk pulling a Giraffe. It sounds like the Giraffe was a great yellow and brown spotted friend. Have you ever seen a Giraffe? I think they are such graceful animals.
