First Time Roller Coaster

By Tomily T., Boston, MA

   I waited in line,

First time

Roller coaster.

Before I was

Rejected

By all other

Instructors,

For being too short or skinny.

I laughed at those

Times in front of everyone.

As the line got shorter,

My stomach got tighter.

I felt

Sick.

Now I was upon the

Gate.

As I could see the

Carts coming.

They stopped and

I got in.

Off I went

Into a scary

World

Where there was no

Turning back.

I was at the top and

Swoooosh,

We were on our way

Down,

It made me lean.

It felt like someone was

Pulling me.

Up we went again

And it made my head hit against the

Seat

And hit it hard.

We went down and up

A couple of zig-zags

Then the straight away.

It was great

The BEST.
