Triple Crown moment in history

You were eating at Manny's Diner in Clark, NJ when American Pharoh won the Triple Crown. The whole place was cheering as we watched it on the television. Will you witness another one in your lifetime?

Winter is Here - a poem by Nate

The frost is on the window.

The cold nips my skin.

Mother has added an extra blanket to my bed.

Snow has arrived like a white blanket to cover the land.

We must add more logs to the hearth.

Winter is here.

Almost There - a poem by Nate

The dew on the morning grass is tickling my feet.

I'm almost there.

The mud squishing between my toes brings a smile to my face.

I'm on the route now.

My feet skipping on the smooth stone,

I look through the window,

The rough wood and smooth rug,

There's no wood in the hearth.

The sharp glass cuts my feet.

The whole house is a bit raggled.

I accidentally trip on the smoothed stone as I run out.

The mud and dew all feel alike with tears in my eyes.

I slam my door shut and cry my thoughts out, but the door is unlocked.

The coldness and fear envelop me.
