A Stormy Night

The Stormy Night!

AS I was laying in my bed a wild dash of lighting forked over me, then after  I heard a crack of thunder. I couldn't help myself but get up and look at the wild sea. Tāwhirimatea was roaring and howling like a angry dog.The Moana sprayed the wharf making the wharf all soggy. Then I suddenly got up and opened my lounge door the wind wrapped around me making me shiver from my toes up to my neck.I stood up straight and the wind slammed the door shut as now I’m scared. I ran up to my bedroom and look out the window,  I  could see the forest hari( singing and dancing). The song of the wind, the sea and the crackle of the lighting  made me drift off back to bed and fall asleep.



Fire Works!




As I walk along the long  karaka(orange) ribbon of road, a popping sound tingled in my ears. As a stroke of colours came out of the museum like a gunshot all the people around me was screaming in excitement. Suddenly, the smell of ash shot me awake. I felt my body tensing up as I couldn’t see a thing. The sound of people around me were frightened as they thought it was a bomb but they really new it was fireworks. As I look at the orange, pink and a tinge of purple and white.

As I walk through the shimmering New York City, I see a whero(red) moving shape, It's Spider Man! As I follow him there is an amazing confetti of colours. It’s a confetti aniwaniwa(rainbow). I smell the noxious smoke and petrol in one gust of breath. The sound of the busy traffic makes me dizzy as I’m still following Spiderman. He looks down at me and says” It's time to be a hero” and flung his web to another building. As I watch him in amazement!



The Tomato fight!
All around me was tomatoes. I could smell tomatoes everywhere I go. AS I walk down through the crowd of people they throw the hot red tomato at me. AS I was rīrā(strongly) Holding my ground as I was feeling sticky and slipping over.The tomatoes were in between my toe ( Toes). I felt like I was drowning in food.
