Today we did peer conferencing and it went pretty good. My picture was of me, standing on the sand at the beach of Gulf Shores. The poem is describing a girl going into the water and waiting for a wave to ride, but she has great fear is doing so.
Ride the Waves
She awoke to the heat of the early August morning
Humidity stuck in the air from the gulf, which lay yards away
She would go out to the beautiful beach, while the sun hit her back with unbelievable heat
How peaceful it was that day
Happiness overtook her with great power
She walked out further and further into the water, fearing the massive ocean might take her
The waves moved strongly, and hit her with great force
They seemes to be angry with her
She held the tube tightly in her arm, praying to God that she would live through this
Her father stood beside her, waiting for her to get on the tube
She did, and shook with nerves, as they waited for a worthy wave to approach
Here it came, with much intensity
She screamed, not from being scared, but from excitement, as it brought her back to shore
She stood up with confidence, and walked out into the water
To ride the waves again
I know it's long, and I still have some revising to do!
