Iron Man Diary Entry
She leaps right over the clouds,
Dear Diary, I woke up at 5:00am to lure the Iron Man into a trap. At first, I felt a little bit nervous because the Iron Man may not have gone into the hidden pit me and the farmers’ dug, or maybe he might have noticed me and I might have ended up in the trap. I waited for hours and hours. Then, I heard a big, loud thumping noise. It was the Iron Man but he wasn’t heading to my direction. Then I had to figure out how to bring him closer to the hidden pit. Grab that barb-wire fence and bring it to the pit? No. Make a circle out of knives and put it around the hidden pit? The Iron Man would’ve probably known that it would be a trap. Hook a car wheel onto a fishing rod and keep it above the pit? Maybe, but then, I had the greatest idea. I rushed back home, grabbed my father’s tool kit and rushed back to the pit. Then, I started lightly tapping a nail onto the hidden pit’s surface. Jink! Jink! Jink! And again Jink! Jink! Jink! The Iron Man heard the tinking sound and came closer and closer to the trap. KA – CRASH! The Iron Man fell in. Then, the farmers buried him. Triumphantly, I ran home and told everybody about the great event. Later in the evening, I remembered the Iron Man’s helpless attempts to try and get out of the pit. Then, to myself, I thought maybe I shouldn’t have trapped him. He only ate metal, but we were afraid that he eats humans too. Too bad the farmers don’t want to dig him out. If he ever gets out, I’ll talk to him.
Illuminating the spookiness of the dark night sky.
Amongst the eeriness of the never ending open space,
The silver patball dominates all around.
Like a grey, ancient lamp hovering above the emerald Earth below,
The mind boggles how it reflects so bright and so true.
Eventually though the moon falls back and disappears from view,
When the majestic sun rises to replace it.
I just wish it could stay out forever,
Hovering so magically,
But sadly it has to fade,
Well at least for another day.
