Emerald Ring

By Hynessi Carter
Grade 4

An emerald ring

Like velvet

I twist I twirl I whirl that million dollar

Ring onto my finger

It was smooth

Like a ribbon

I could barely see it

It was midnight

I could see the moonlight

At the carnival

And I had just won

The emerald ring

By squirting water into a tiger’s mouth.

It was a wonderful prize.
