Three little sand sharks...

Chapter 1
Once upon a time there were three little sand sharks that lived in an expensive looking house that had its' own pool. Later that day they went to the supermarket to get some food and then they went home to eat their food and watch T.V.
On the T.V. was a funny show and they laughed and laughed until the show finished.
To be continued...

Chapter 2
The next day they went out to go fishing and then they ate it and said "Yummy, yummy in our tummys, we should do this more often 'cos this fish is so yummy".
"I could eat all of the chocolate fish".
"Too bad" said the other two "you might be sick".
"No way! I can't be sick".
"You could if you ate them all".
To be continued...

Chapter 3
The next day then they had to go to the supermarket again because they had no food. They got chocolate hot cross buns and in the pack there was a million dollars. Then they sold their old car and bought a new car.
To be continued...

Chapter 4
The car went super fast and had laser cannons. Then they went to their great new castle that had a moat filled with sharks that had VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY SHARP SHARP SHARP SHARP SHARP SHARP SHARP SHARP teeth that ripped into your flesh and then they relaxed and sat down and watched T.V. and ate chocolate hot cross buns.

The End.

Rainbows

As the rain does fall,
The rainbow will follow.

As the trees all call,
As light as a swallow.

As the skies do clear,
A rainbow is made.

The people do cheer,
As their worries all fade.

And a word to everyone,
And anything in sight,
Have a lot of fun,
Remember - you'll always be a shining light.

Space

I see the stars shining brighter than a stage light. I know back on earth the cheese moon thing is a lie, but up here the moon does look like cheese, mouldy, grey cheese actually. The satellite  facing earth is beeping loudly, so loud it could break my ear drums in two. Well 10 more minutes until we leave space, so see ya back on earth. Astronaut out.

W.A.R. (We are ready)

On the boat
We stay afloat,
We left with hope
That we would cope,
With the war
That lay before,
Our very eyes
Hoping that,
We would not cry,
That war would end
With all my friends.
