I wonder how long This lady will survive on this island of nothingness. I wonder how long this lady will survive on this island of loneliness. I wonder how long this lady will survive on this island without the contact of another. I wonder how long this lady will survive on this island with only hope.......
I fluttered out of the way once again, easily dodging what I assumed was yet another failed attempt to capture me. I had never actually taunted death and danger before, but I couldn’t help myself. He was curious. This spindly hatching of a human. The only humans I had ever encountered had been real threats...muscular, bronzed by the sun, skilled, and usually possessed some sort of weapon. This one was a pathetic pale, quickly turbo red from the salty heat. He’s only real weapon seemed to be his mouth as he spewed hateful, empty threats in my direction with each pitiful lunge.
While fishing on a raft at sea,Ben lost his paddles,and drifted out to sea ended up on a deserted island. Ben was tired and confused lost not knowing where he was nor if someone would find him he feel asleep. He was so tired, that he slept for two days. Hungry and lost he wondered off into the forest in search for food. It was not long he found coconuts,bananas all kinds of berries, he was in heaven. So he ate and ate, feeling lazy he decides to find a place to rest. He found the perfect place, he lays down and falls asleep. Several hours have gone by. He woke up and sees a beautiful parrot, staring right at him, I’m lost I’m lost I don’t know where I am. The parrot replies I’m lost I’m lost . Ben started laughing and so did the parrot. So he handed some berries to the parrot. I will call you Mac,Ben decides to break a coconut open and smashes his finger ouch . Mac hollers out ouch ouch I’m lost haha haha. Ben started laughing again he thought that Mac was hallaríais. Mac would shout ouch I’m lost he heard Ben say he needed help and Mac would say help. Ben spent a lot of time around his new friend Mac talking,feeding Mac and spent lots of time talking to Mac since there was no one else on the island. Thinking he would never be rescued Ben, and Mac had learned to become friends and trust each other. Ben would pet and carry Mac with him every where he went, Mac loved Ben and Ben loved Mac, Mac would talk and laugh repeat words that Ben would say thinking he would never be rescued they kept each other company . It had been a week and Ben saw a large rescue boat headed toward the island he knew that he was going to go home but what about Mac. The rescue team arrived we been looking for you for a week everyone is going to be happy your safe and alive you must come with us we know that you are Ben the person we are looking for.

I was flying around the island in a slow motion. I looked down under me and sometimes I even think that it is crazy how far up I am.
Then while flying, I saw something. Moving. It is usually just another animal but this wasn’t the case. I saw a human. This human had very dirty blonde hair and was freaking out. That is all I could see from that far so I decided to get a closer look.
I flew down on a close-by tree next to this mysterious human. I got a closer look at the human. It was light skinned and looked to be very scared. This human was very quickly pacing back in forth.
I wonder how the human got on this island in the first place. I have never seen a human on this island ever. The human looks up at me. It stares and I stare at it back. Then the human grabs a knife. “Hey, birdie. You look very delicious”, says the hungry human.
I freak out! I fly away just in time for the knife thrown at me is too far away to hit me. That human is crazy! I’m just a bird! I have never done anything to that human! Weird human.
I fly away to my home in a tree by a gorgeous waterfall. I listen to the water and fall asleep peacefully knowing nothing will happen to me. I wake a little later to the water being splashed around. I open my eyes to see the human.
The human, I see, is a male. He is just washing himself. Then I see him look around. He gets out a few minutes later then dries off with his clothes and puts them back on. He looks around once again to see a little mouse.
The little mouse is minding it’s own business when the human grabs it! Then the human eats it whole! I just stare at this crazy human. He then spits up the bones and smiles. He walks away in a slight jog.
He is crazy, I think to myself! I fly away once again to try to get away. Then as I’m flying I see a ship in the ocean. I also see more humans! Great, more to eat me whole as well.
As time goes on, they find their way to each other and he knows he is safe. I sit on a nearby tree near the ship. Then I see this human, Dan, again. He stares at me one last time.
“Whatever you saw, It didn’t happen”, he says as he leaves with his friends.
What weird humans.
Flying, flying flap flap flap flap. The bird is flying through the rainforest admiring the beautifying day. For once it isn’t raining. The wind between the birds wings is mystifying. There is a calming sensation about the day. Calm, open, lovely and quiet. The bird decided to sit on a branch and get some sun. There were other birds flying around but he didn’t care. He sat there and soaked up the sun. This doesn’t happen a lot during the rainy season. Usually it’s rain and wet for what feels like an entire year. The sun is a bright orange pink color. A monkey comes up to sit next to the bird. They sit there and coexist. All is calm. What the bird and monkey didn’t know was something was watching them the entire time. Bird and monkey. It was HUGE it was able to kill both of them with one bite. Bird and monkey still did not know this. The beast slowly crawled towards them. The beast sat right next to monkey. All was still calm. The beast, monkey and bird all sat on this branch. Then another beast came from behind and another came on the other side. Bird and monkey got scared. Bird could easily fly away but could he leave monkey there to be killed? Should he leave monkey behind? The bird decided he could glide for a few feet holding monkey. The beasts were getting closer and closer. Bird quickly and calmly opened his wings and talons up. He grabbed monkey and began to fly. It was more like falling with style though. The bird did not realize how heavy monkey was. They kept “flying” until they ended up landing in a deep hole. They couldn’t see a thing. They tried to get out but to no avail. They should have just been killed by the beasts it would have been a quicker death. Now the bird could fly out but the problem is when he fell he broke one of his wings and monkey broke a leg. Both are now hurt in a dark hole. They both know they are going to die but it will be a long slow death and both of them begin to cry. What the two animals don’t know is the rainforest they lived in was a nature preserve. There were cameras everywhere inspecting and documenting the ecosystem. It just so happened someone was watching the cameras when all of this went down. The only problem was this person was in California and the rainforest is in Africa. He knew he had to go help the monkey and the bird but didn’t know if he could get there quick enough. He ended up finding a flight to Africa. It was going to take awhile and the monkey and bird didn’t have food or water. It was going to be a stretch but the man thinks he can make it to them before they starve to death.
This was only my second flight! It was so exciting! If I wanted I could fly all the way to a different island. But mom and dad would never let me. I went to the sandy beach when I looked down and saw a figure laying on the sand. Mother had always said to never touch things that wash up on the beach, but I couldn’t help it, so I flew down. It was a little human, she had brown hair and was soaking wet. She was obviously young because she was small perhaps seven years old, the only thing remotely close to a human that I’ve seen was a bear cub. The human stirred and lifted its head, I started to fly back a bit. There was a growling nose coming from the little human, and it started crying. It could be hungry? I flew into the forest and picked berries from a bush and drop them on her head. It reached up and grabbed them, for a second it looked up but then started to eat. I stared from a distance but slowly flew closer until I was only a bit away. It turned it head toward me and I flinched. “Hey bird” it said in a squeaky voice. I chirped and flew up to her shoulder. It laughed and stroked me. It started to get dark and the little human walked into the trees and layer down on a patch of grass. I stared out into the distance and saw a boat coming toward the island. You’ll soon be safe my little human.

You have to move forward in the world Because no one else will Keep pushing yourself or time will remain still Make efforts to get where you want to be It’s not hard, all you have to do is believe
It won’t take just words, you need action In life, doing nothing won’t have a reaction All opportunities will pass by if you waste your time You’re on a path to you future You need to stay in line
If you’re determined and work hard Your goals will take you far If you keep on procrastinating It will lead to a future you’ll end up hating And your dreams will forever be waiting
You ask why it’s important I tell you have to think what’s going to happen next in life Stop making mistakes that will endanger your future Or you’ll be filled with strife You think it’s hard, but it’s worth it Have to keep pushing yourself to earn it Cause keep this thought in mind “Do you really deserve it?” If so, then you have to work for it
Yeah, just keeping pushing yourself to reach your dream Cause you have potential to do greater things You think the world is crazy I agree, that’s the universal message You can see it all around Due to its strong presence But don’t let that stop you because the world is all tangled Just stay calm and unravel before you get mangled
Keep this in mind, we have to motivate ourselves Don’t be blind to the underlying emotions you felt Those emotions we feel tell us to succeed Cause that desire for our dreams is what we bleed Failure is not an option, you have to achieve your goals Cause that’s one of the things in life that will fill up that gaping hole
You have to face some obstacles and might think life is tough You’re on a bumpy road, times will get rough But keep on going things, will get better It’s not like Pittsburgh with this bipolar weather
People gonna be telling you that’s impossible But that’s not a boulder, it’s a pebble An insignificant obstacle Cause you can’t let others keep you down Those type of people will have you lost and unfound
