OBJECT

I am a hanging necklace on the tallest tree of the biggest forest. I am a silver necklace with a tiny dangling pony on the bottom. Every day I wonder how I came to be on this huge mighty tree that sees over miles of green. I’ve been here for 6 months resting against this Burch tree wonder will anyone find me. All day I would stare at the vast landscape of the huge Canadian forest. As far as I could see there were lakes, rivers and ponds.
The next question you may ask is how I got here. I was on a plane flying over the cities and forests. Then I slipped out of my home and fell down for many minutes waiting to land. The next thing I knew was. I was sitting on the biggest tree on the highest branch. Then out of nowhere this huge fast gust of wind knocked me off my tree onto the grass. I looked around not knowing where I was. I couldn’t see a thing. I closed my eyes just hoping it was a bad dream.
I woke up to find myself still lying in the long thick grass. Days went by and I was feeling alone. No one or nothing came to help. Then I heard footsteps coming from a distance right towards me. I felt myself being lifted up. I looked down and I saw four legs and a hairy chest. I could not make out what the creature was until felt myself being placed back onto the tree. I was hanging again. It wasn’t the tallest part but I was back on my tree looking over everything. I looked to see what the creature was but it was already gone. I sat for days wondering what it was that put me back, but nothing came to mind. I spent the rest of my days hanging on a branch in the enchanting forest.
THE END

  1. You are on the verge of creating a very strong voice, here! To be truly expressive, look for spots were you have hidden behind obvious statements like 'I couldn't see a thing' and 'I felt myself being lifted up' - try to show rather than tell here!
