My Short Story

Once upon a time there was a little piggy named Recital. This little piggy had it very hard. Her piggy mom left her when she was little and then one after another her brothers and sisters had disappeared too. Then she was all alone. She one day walked into the forest and lived there from then on. Recital one day discovered a hill on the east side of the forest and decided to climb it, Once she got to the top she saw down the in the valley a beautiful farm that had all the animals she could ever think. Everyday she would climb that hill and just sit and watch. One day when she was sitting there she over heard a few pigs squealing and oinking. She got really excited and started to run to the farm. Suddenly she stopped and thought to herself what makes her think that the animals here would accept her? What makes her think that when she gets there the other pigs and other animals will even talk to her? So she got discoraged and walked back to the hill to sit and watch and see everyone have fun. After that she would never run again, she wouldn't have fun, nothing in her life was good enough for her now. Recital practically gave up on life after that and she was slowly dieing. Turned skinny, never ate, started to turn a different color. Black the color of death.
A nice summer day Recital was laying under the sun trying to gain back what she once lost, her life. All of a sudden she heard steps, she ignored them. Again she heard them but closer this time. She finally looked up and saw another pig. Getting up in a hurry she tripped and oinked and tried to regain herself to look at the other pig. When she finally got herself together and started to speak, the other pig said "Hi". Then a conversation started that wouldn't end for hours. Recital found out that the other piggies name was Isital, he lived on that farm and would sit and watch Recital sit and watch the farm. Then he told her that when she was running toward the farm he got really excited that a new friend was coming to hang out with him, and got really sad when she ran back and then never saw her sitting on top of the hill again. Then he set out to go find her to see if she was okay because he had never seen a more beautiful piggy than her. After Isital told her this  her appitite came back and her life started to regain. From then on she fell in love, well both of them did and from then on spent most of their days together. Then she asked why he never went back to that beautiful farm and he said that it was no farm it was a slaughter house. He almost didn't make it to the forest because it was his turn next to die. Recital started to cry and said "All those other pigs are dead... I'm glad I didn't go". Isital said it was a good idea because he would of never escaped if not for her. She hugged her new love and said "I'm so glad and I...". But didn't finish because he said "I love you".

My Little Poem

I walk down the street.
I notice the birds.
Dogs, cats, mice and all others.
As I walk by by, I have no care.
I got to do what I got to do.
Nothing else matters.
Hobos come ask me for change,
and I just walk by.
People try to hand me papers,
that are worthless.
I push away.
I stop in front of a window...
I see myself.
I look no different the the others.
I walk back take the paper.
Hand the hobo some change.
Walk back and play with the dog.
Smell the air and twirl.
I look in a window.
I see a smile.
Thats what's different.
