The blue
bell wood
I pushed through an army of trees to find an ancient
woodland, filled with a sea of blue bells. I opened the corroded gate to enter
the woodland. The gate was old and made from rotting wood; crumbling under my
fingers.
I inhaled the smell of spring freshening the air, coming from
the carpet of blue bells. New born rabbits where hoping over logs and passing
stunningly, beautiful flowers.
Sitting on a fallen tree log brought back memories which
started flooding through my mind there was one about a camping trip when I was
twelve.
Utter silence was broken by the distant call of a wood
pigeon, which emanated from the horizon.
I pushed back through the army of trees and back through the
corroded gate to leave the woodland.
Wow! There is some fantastic writing happening in year 7. Your metaphors were delicately crafted James. An army of trees, a carpet and sea of bluebells. Wonderful stuff. Mrs Casey :)
