"Quick look over there, a shooting star, "shouts Alfie. The four of us look around and see grandad in the sky. It is grandad, they all say, the children of the night as our story begins. Magic is all around the house, flaming lights, tinsel golden with puddings being fed to the leading man, Santa. As the children look on, they wait from heaven for a sign that their grandad is with them and he is guiding them to Santa's heavy lake. Where all dreams come true, the lake is brilliant. There are dancing elves, kings, queens of Christmas, and fair...

The streams flow against the rocks; in and out, they dry their tears, and the water comes from the beast sitting against the rubble. As Goldberg, the green silk beast, cradles his emotion through the wounds of the trees. The mood of the light darkened the air, and Goldberg felt alone. He had left home in a rush that day as his father Edgar left a mark that could not be replaced when Goldberg’s mother died, she left behind a legacy for Goldberg to be the future king; however, even though Edgar was meant to be king, he was only born into that ...

'History Repeating Itself '.

Leanne Drain

Submitted to Contest #138

I sat there listening to the open air, the sound of history repeating as I looked on into the light-filled street. Then, finally, I see the future visions, one that resembles the past. My past was never easy. It was always rocky, but as I look on through the once darkened street, I see myself in the reflection of the road Mirror is something I do not want to know as it reminds me of my past. The nastiness of it, the cruelness of it. What is it that is so frustrating about history? Is it the fact that I could never relive it? Or the fac...

Definition of Hard work

Leanne Drain

Submitted to Contest #136

I struggle; I fall every hurdle faced with the demining errors of my past. I see it now where I want to be, how I want to be accessible away from all the mishaps of life. There is a sign outside my house in two different directions. One route leads to my warrior, my hero, my beloved grandad, where he shines the brightest of the stars. The other road leads to failures I have faced in this little life as I come to a halt at a crossroads. I see my path; it is either the goodness or the badness. I take each path and approach them with caution. T...

The Hidden message

Leanne Drain

Submitted to Contest #71

It starts with an archway, a painted coloured arch full of light , inside the archway there is a message hidden beyond the sky. Velvet strings of ecstatic clouds fill the air. They can speak as if they are from a different time, as I walk through the archway, I see the clouds grasp the message they do not want to share it for it is hidden for a reason they say, I just think they are being cheeky and suggest they give it to me or they would not get any treats for a week, clouds loved a sense of water after all it did always pour of rain ...

Leanne Drain

Submitted to Contest #63

Snuggled, in the warmth of the bed. All the way down from the brittle cold ground . His colours reflecting against the trees as he smiles down at the world looking quite smug . The fact that he was in the warm made him shiver the cold breeze out as he continued to look on through the lights of the enchanted houses that draw closer home . They too are happy as they watch with interesting smiles the magical houses blind out the night and see that the little robin is smiling up at them from the far distance . As the air continues to grow thicke...

Submitted to Contest #58

Power comes from within or does it? What is it like to be constantly trapped in your own thought dialogue keep picking holes in your brain and leaving you cold and broken? I remember a time where I felt powerless and it left me scarred without a trace of life to guide me home. The way I felt when the voices hit against my walls trembling through the walls of my brain. I remember it all , a day I wish to forget but cannot the way the wind felt on my face , the way the air captured my light halo from the top of my body however the light was ...
