Once upon a time the world was flat. Once upon a time the world was black and white. Once upon a time the world was at war.

All countries were at war which would go down in history as fighting for the last land. Back in 2039 the ice from the North and South Pole collapsed. Making a ripple of water crash into the lands. The Earth was covered in water and all great cities were destroyed. Humans we...

He looked over thoughtfully at the waterfall, as he sat on his loyal stead. Only a couple minutes ago he threw his wife into the river. Her body tangled with ropes and stones dragging her down into the deep abyss of water. Only to realise that the force of the water was too strong, making the rocks crumble which would allow his wife to be swept away. He looked on with piecing eyes seeing the refle...

It was there everyday. On a good day. On a bad day. Everyday I walked across the muddy path to work I saw an entrance. To where? No one knows. No one dares. There have been many rumours and tales about the people who enter but never return.

My day had gotten bad to worse in a matter of hours. I walked home with a struggle, with the mud becoming sticky due to the heavy rain. My boots got stuck w...

After my 13 hour shift at the hospital I was more than ready to get home. I walked through the thick snow and howling winds to my front door. I laid on the sofa after popping a ready meal in the microwave. I rubbed my head to ease my headache forming for the past 7 hours. Once I heard the ring from the microwave I stood up stretching my neck as I removed the packet. BANG BANG BANG. My front door w...

When I was twelve my mum took me to summer camp. I remember the bunk beds in cabin with green blankets. The activities were good and meeting new friends was so much fun. But if you asked me to go again...no way I would go. My mum dropped me at the entrance before driving away to work. I met Georgia and Amy who shared cabin 8 with me. That first night I slept on the top bunk bed while another girl ...

June went to the aquarium with her mum, dad and older brother Stephen. June wore her favourite pink flower dress with flowers which she would wear to school if she could. Stephen ran up to the fish tank area of the aquarium shouting and banging the glass “just keep swimming fishies”. June saw Stephen being pulled away by their dad.

While Stephen was getting a lecture about manners, June decided ...

It’s Halloween today!

The teacher told us to draw what we were going to wear tonight, I saw the other children in the classroom using colourful crayons and talking about what they were going to wear with their friends.

I’ll draw my friend Suesee who sits in the graveyard at night with her big black eyes staring into my window, I begin with a circle and big black eyes with a black crayon.

The te...

I will never forget that night. The thunder was so loud, rain poured from the clouds like water being spilled from a cup. I awoke to the rumble of the thunder. My body was shivering from fear as I sat on my bed looking across the dark room. The wooden floor was cold as I walked across, holding Gary the bear tightly in my fists. I remember hearing shouting and loud thudding sounds from down stairs....

Red roses are red,

You may see them when you’re dead,

I’m only joking if you don’t know,

My tale is like an unfortunate soul.

Me and poems don’t mix,

Let’s instead make a jinx,

Red roses oh red roses,

I like them more than poses.

Red is my favourite colour,

I didn’t tell my brother,

Roses are my favourite flowers,

Those who hide are a bunch of cowards.
