This is something I wrote in my English class. We have been working on Poetry Sketches. We were to take one quote, four pre selected words and one of our vocabulary words. This is what I came up with.

" I walk, with noiseless feet" around the soft gray stone.
Fairies dance through the silivery cascading water of the fountain.
Silently I draw in a deep breath and move closer.
I abstain for reaching out and touching their translucent wings.
The ground begans to shake.
I fall into black nothingness.
Everything stops.
When I open my eyes, I see the cornflower blue sky above me.

That's all I have right now. I am thinking about turning it into a short story.
Quote by: John G. Whittier

This is an interesting beginning and I'm sure could be enlarged into a story.  Good luck with it!

Absolutely enchanting!!! Ellie
