The Summer Breeze – Kianna Elkins (Age 11)

As I go around to the pool is see dragon flies flying over the top, skimming it with their feet. As the clouds move, the sun comes out to dry up all the rain from earlier today. I see grasshoppers hopping through the grass. I go around to the front yard.

Rendezvous Teaches a Lesson in Portion Control – Jeff Elkins
