The ninja who will save the Earth


As I watch my favorite show, dreams swirl deep inside me, where I cannot see them yet. I watch the ninja fight for what’s right and stick together through thick and thin. I watch them train with their master and see their bond grow. They see each other as brothers, and now they also have a sister. I watch them save their city, and a wish forms deep in my mind.

I wish I could be a ninja. I think about it, as I lie in bed. The thought keeps me awake. I’m about the age of the ninja in my show, but then I think yea, but it’s just a show. You can’t fight, no ninja master is about to teach you, and you don’t even have a team. That last thought stays in my head. The ninja didn’t exactly grow up together, but they act like they did. I don’t have any friends who have been with me that long, since I have moved as much as I did.

My generation can save the world. If we work together, stop using plastic, pick up litter, or do whatever other creative thing we can think of.

I guess that would make us ninja… but we have to work together. I finally realize, you don’t need fighting skills to be a ninja, you just need to help. You have to keep going, because ninja never quit. We all have to get together and save the earth, and who knows? Maybe one day there will be a legend about the generation that saved the earth.

And I fall asleep, dreaming of a better earth, a better world.

Hot. Burning. Fire.  coming this way. must run, must move.  I try, but I cant. I'm anchored to the ground.  Fire. Burning everything in its path. Try harder, move still can't. Heat, licking my body. Doom, spreading through me Fire, burning me... and then, it was just another that the fire has destroyed. Hey guys, Nia here, just wanted to give you some info on the description. In case you haven't guessed, it's from the perspective of a tree during a forest fire. I wrote it because this is what I think a tree would feel when it's watching its friends burn down and then ultimately, being burned itself. And yes, plants can feel, they can be hurt, and maybe they don't have emotions, but they can still tell when danger is near, and they even communicate with other plants. Plants are amazing, and they give us so much, I feel it's only fair if we protect them in return.  #SaveTheTrees

The Abyss

Image
  As I close my eyes, a flood of thoughts fills my head. I roll over sleep. stop thinking, but I can't. All my worries and problems are playing in my head, along with my to-do list. I can't take it. I open my eyes, sit up, and reach for my glass of water. When I close my eyes again, I try to block out my mind, but I can still hear my thoughts whispering to me. So, I try something else. I imagine I'm falling in a bottomless, dark, quiet abyss. My problems don't exist here. I don't have any worries, it's just me and the quiet hum of the abyss walls around me. It's perfectly quiet and as I fall, the world feels distant. Soon enough sleep has me in it's warm,cozy arms. The world doesn't exist anymore, and neither do I. In my head, nothing exists, at least until the dreaded morning when everything will come rushing back, but for now, it's just me and the quiet fuzz of my mind, as I enter the land of dreams.
