Tractor

 It lives in a place with huge doors  It grumbles as it’s eyes close tightly. Mud, rubbish and hay covers it From it’s bulky feet to his hard head. It  patiently waits for his owner to arrive having only a couple of  glimpses across  the night. It sleeps waiting for tomorrow's adventure to arrive.


His journey starts now!. His owner appears in a strike of lightning. His key turns he purrs violently  He grumbles. He hikes  up threw the foliage like a man with machete. He cracks  the ground  and crumbling  burrows on the way.

My Holiday

                                              My Holiday
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Instead of joining my class at the Marae Noho, I went to Taupo to meet with family visiting from England. I had the best holiday ever. I learnt to hold onto my Dad's tyre when my Grandpa was driving the boat. I enjoyed finally getting  over the wake on my wake board and doing a double ski with my aunt. It was very scary if the rope got tangled  each other. The things I felt interested the most was going to the lodge at Rotorua and catching little brown trout. when we went on the boat I had a go on the Tyre. Vrmmm splat Splosh splash as the motor starts dung as the boat starts. whoosh!!! as the boat skims across the lake.
"Wow wow" I scream as the Tyre tips, "that was a close one," I say to myself.
"Put put," the engine shortcut. 
"Well pull me in then" I say sadly.
 "Michael why don't you have a go?" I say "No!  I am not crazy like you "Spike what about you" I say "sure" he says"pump the oil then" Dad says 
"OK" I say Vrmmm the motor cuts threw the water like a plane spinning threw the air bang dung as the the boat hits the water dung dung "its very bumpy today" I shout to Dad.
