Sarah's Shipwrecked Poem

Shipwrecked

The fresh mountain air

Blew through my tangled hair

It made me think of the wild sea

And how I love to be free

Though my mom and dad are not here

I do not want to draw a tear

Even though I am all alone

They are as near to me as if I was at home

I spy a pod of whales as they swim into the bay

And hear distant cries of gulls looking for prey

The scent of the green forest adds to the scene

Completed by the spider monkeys and their playful screams

I started to think about my empty tummy

The sound coming from it sounded quite funny

I knew that the one thing that I really missed the most

Was the juicy taste of my mom’s crispy roast!
