Prediction

I predict that in the end of my book "Among The Free" Luke the main character will soon find out that the population police have officially fallen and third children are finally free after several years of living in fear. I believe this because in the middle of the book a small town takes a weapon that Luke dropped and kill a population police officer and then Luke runs to a different town and faints and the town gives him something to drink and they overcome the population police by refusing to give him to them. In my mind that shows that in the end the population police will fall.

Truth or False

I never met my grandpa, he died before I was born. He was a sheriff down in Texas for a long time.
He was divorced from my grandma. He lived to be ninety then had a heart attack and died. I don’t know if he was a nice grandpa or mean, but I guess I'll never know.

Sleeping

Authors note:I wrote this for writing circles.

Sleeping is my favorite time in the world because dreams are fun. When you’re sleeping all you’re thinking about is not waking up. I sleep sometimes but during the school week i cant sleep because school has to start so early!

Rhymes

Authors note: I wrote this because it was the topic for our writing circles.

There once was a rhyme that traveled for quite some time the man who wrote it was quite fine. He wrote using quote on quote, word on word, when he was done he attached it to a little bird and that bird was given a cheese curd. The bird flew directly through the sky after the man had said bye, bye. The rhyme was great the rhyme was good until the bird was hit by another man’s truck hood. The man found the paper he balled it up and said see you later little piece of paper. The rhyme ended up where it started with the same man so the man threw it in the can because clearly no one had been a fan.
