Little River Boy

The Forest

forest

I opened my eyes and found myself inside a small cave. It was all wet and slimy inside. I could feel the heat in the smelly air. I was sliding down the coarse, sand paper like, surface. I was moving very quickly in the cave. I could almost make out a light at the end of the cave. Then I was spit out. Above me, gazing down upon me, was a big black dog.

I stayed completely still; I didn't move a muscle. The dog swooped me into its mouth again.

A few minutes later I was thrown in a hole -- right beside the river bank. I felt dirt being piled over me. Oh noo... I'm being buried alive!!! Arrrrnnng!!! I can't even move now! I laid there forever. The dirt started to get wet turning into mud! I felt a wave of water hit me. This bank was sweeping away the mud! Huge waves smacked the dirt and mud away. It was as if a huge arm was pushing the mud to another area. All at once, a huge wave pushed all the mud away and then sucked me into the river as I was relieved to get a bath.
