Puddles and Petals

Emily managed to get some editorial contest thing she did for school published in the local paper. So here it is…

Puddles and petals

If I had to pick between winter and spring, I would pick spring. I would pick spring because it rains and flowers get fed. Later on, when the flowers are fed enough, they grow beautifully.

In spring, there are also puddles to splash in. When you splash in the puddles, you get all wet, but I don’t care. I get to feel the squishy mud beneath my shoes. The mud goes squish, squash, squish, squash.

I like running in the rain with my friend. We run in the grass, laughing while holding our umbrellas. I love spring. Spring gives you a warm feeling inside, and when it rains, you can do a lot of things like splash in puddles and dance in the rain. That is why I like spring better than winter.
