Shadow on the wall
The night grew later, as I waited through the night. Listening for your voice or to see your flash light. I hear the sound of shoes, brushing the grass. I remember thinking, "he's home at last." But my hair on my neck stood up in fear. When the shadow on the wall looked nothing like my dear. This shadow's head reached the ceilings light. The shadow of his hand was a humongous sight. When I blinked my eyes and opened them again. The shadow was gone and I lifted my chin. My chin dropped back down as a man walked through my room, he went through the wall, my eyes consumed. I was on edge all night, until my husband was there. The shadow on the wall story, I had to share. When I explained to him about the shadow on the wall. He replied "I only know one man that tall." Replying I said " this man was walking fast like he had somewhere to be." He said " he always walked like that, that was my pawpaw Willie D." Earlier that day I'd said "I wished his grandpa & I could have met." Heaven had heard me and sent my request!

Wicked Dollar
Once, upon a time there lived two little sisters named Marie and Katie. Marie and Katie loved to play outside from daylight to dark. One day they were playing outside as usual. When Marie spotted a dollar flying through the yard. Marie exclaimed "look Katie a dollar, a dollar!"Katie replied "I want that dollar, it's mine!" Marie responded, "I wouldn't do that if I were you! You know Mom said we're not to go in the woods." Then she yelled, "You'll get lost!" But Katie was too focused on that dollar. And so she hopped, then she skipped, then she skipped, and she hopped until she had the dollar in her hand and just when she finally did grab it. It turned into a witch and flew away saying "hahaha! " Frightened Katie begin running faster!She was really running now with a hop and a skip, a skip and a hop!But eventually she forgot to skip when she hopped. Boom! Pow! She had stumbled over a stump and went falling down to the ground. She jumped back up her knee and elbow scratched up! She cried, "what will I do? I'm lost and can't find my way back home." A deep voice from behind her said, "hey, little girl.. can I help you?" Katie said, who's that talking? I don't see anyone." Then the voice said, "look up here, for I am the tree." she looked up and gasped, "is that, oh, hey tree. I didn't know trees can talk." Tree replied "well we don't talk much for we spend our lives lonely. You know always stuck in one place. It's hard being planted in the ground." Katie said, "Mr. tree could you help me find my way home?" The tree replied "I won't be much help because I'm a tree planted in the ground. I can look this way." He turns his eyes to the left. "I can look that way." He turns his eyes to the right. But that's really all he could do. But as he looked to the right. He said, "I do see a little cottage, but it doesn't look very big." She said, "maybe someone can help me there. How can I ever repay you? Oh, thank you Mr. Tree!" So she hopped and she skipped, and she skipped and she hopped, until finally she reached the cottage. She knocked on the door and hears a voice saying, "I'm coming,I'm coming." An old lady opens the door and says "hi little girl." She goes on to say "how can I help you little girl?" Katie said, " I'm lost, I was hoping you could help me find my way back to my mom and dads." The old lady replied saying, "I don't know where your mom and dad live. But I have some candy." Katie screamed, " ooh candy!" She grabbed the candy! But just as she opened it. The piece of candy turned into a snake. Frightened and surprised she threw the snake down and took off running! She skipped, then hopped, hopped, then skipped, then boom! She fell again. Oh no, not another stump," she cried! She heard a voice saying, "hey, little girl". She said, "Mr.Tree is that you?" as she dusted her self off. "Boy, am I glad to hear your voice," she cried! She continued, "I'm being chased by a wicked old witch and a snake." The tree replied, "I'd love to help you, little girl." Then his voice went from deep and lazy to scary as he continued "but hahaha!" The tree turned into the witch and started chasing her! Meanwhile, back at their house. Marie had gone to get Mom and Dad. She said, "help mom and dad, Katie's gone into the woods." Mom replied, "oh dear, which way did she run?" Marie said, "that way and I told her don't do it!" Meanwhile, their dad grabs a gun and her brother Brent grabs his bow and arrow and they head out in the woods. They search for an hour and a half until they hear a familiar voice crying, "mama, daddy, Marie, Brent, is anybody out there?" Brent says, "shh listen, I hear Katie! "Katie is that you?"Katie yells, "yeah, I'm scared." You could tell her voice was getting closer. So they were headed in the right direction. But wait, they could hear another unfamiliar, wicked voice. About that time, Brent spotted Katie and what appeared to be a witch riding a broom chasing her!He exclaimed, "no one messes with my Katie!" He drew his bow and shot the witch. The witch kept repeating, " no-ooh," as she fell to the ground. Katie ran and hugged dad and Brent. She said, " thanks brother, you're the bestest brother in the whole entire world." Then they all went home and lived happily, ever after.

Masked
I was 10 years old shy and timid. Public school I had never attended. My whole life I had went to a Christian School. So with a skirt to my ankle, I felt like a fool. I didn't know all the cool new songs and to cut my hair was a sin, was wrong. But I never walked with my head held down. Instead I became the classes clown. But to hide your true self is the greatest task and no one should ever have to wear that mask. Your breathing will get heavy and heart will race. But take off that mask and show your face.
