The Dark Side
Trapped Under a big wave, Not again I thought to myself in shock. “Help mum” I screamed at the top of my lungs. Oh no not again, Another massive scary wave was coming. I better hold my breath AGAIN. Luckily I was wearing my best Friend, My life Jacket.
Awkwardly I tried swimming away from the rip but sadly Failing. Amazingly I was brave and did not panik. :)
“Help” I anxiously said. A brave lady in her 20’s came over grabbed my arm and pulled me towards mum. She showed great Kotahitanga.
Thankfully I Said “ Thanks A lot.” “Thats Ok” She Replied.She should be so proud. I thought to myself.
I walked up the smooth smooshy sand.I looked back behind myself at the beach that can either be a gloomy beach or a dark beach like a dark clown watching over you like the Mona Lisa.
