WINTER

Splish, splosh, glug, glug, gloop. Slowly I trudged through the slick slimy mud. My new purple gumboots groaned repetitively as I walked all the way home across the farm land. Glug, slop, glug, slop. The dark clouds threatened evilly as they held off the torrential rain that was due. Suddenly my sister jumped out from behind an old pine tree as I passed it. I fell backwards. Splat! I was covered completely. Gradually I struggled to my feet and stood there, chocolate dipped and freezing like an ice-cream cone. Angrily I chased her all the way home.

Sprout,sprout. Quietly I walked down the gray concrete path. I had new shining clean running shoes that I was wearing. Happily I looked at all the green plants in the gardens. The golden ball in the blue sky shined on to me like a heater heating a room up. Slowly the rainbow coloured flowers were growing every minute of the day. It was nice seeing the plants grow. Slowly I walked around the roundabout. Carefully I started walking back.
