Creative Writing: Running The Fast

1050 Words5 Pages

Long after the tortoise, and the Hare, the Hare still thought he could run the fastest. One morning the Hare woke up to a Road Runner coming to the town. Everyone was talking about the Road Runner. “We have never had any visitors before,” one citizen said. “I know!” another citizen said. The Hare walked up to him and said, “ I challenge you to a race,” thinking he could win.
The Hare expected something other than a “ Meep meep!” from the Road Runner. “ I will take that as a yes,” the Hare said confused, as he thought, “ I can’t lose this race.” “Who is going to win?” one citizen questioned. “ No one except for the tortious has ever beaten the Hare,” another citizen said. Suddenly, everyone was asking who would win. …show more content…

“ This will defiantly work! Third times a charm! On the day of the race, the Hare had been ready to win. “Ready to prove yourself the fastest?” Hare thought. “Yes!” But in the middle of the race, the wheels came off. “These skates were a rip-off!” Hare thought as he fell into a tree. “OWW!” After a week of resting, Hare still wanted to prove himself faster. “ I know! I will put rockets on the skates! I am unstoppable now!” he thought. But the Road Runner had some tricks up his sleeves. The Road Runner left a trail of carrots that led off a cliff. “ I am so excited to win!” Hare said with pride as the race started. “Are those carrots I smell?” Hare followed the trail of carrots and soon found himself falling off a cliff. “AAAAAA!” “ This time I will make a plan. I know! I will put up a sign that says detour that leads off a cliff,” Hare thought. “ That will work, that will have to work!” So he put up the sign at the track and made a path off the cliff. Hare also bought some bird seed. Hare made a trail of birdseed on the path. The Hare saw the Road Runner fall for it, but as he grew closer he noticed someone standing there. “Who is that?” Hare thought. “Is that the Road Runner? No, it can’t

    With my relay team stretched,warmed up, and ready to go, we headed towards the stadium where we would race against the fastest girls in the nation. Intimidated but not deterred we headed out of Tent City and into the gates of Turner Stadium. Knowing this was my last race I would run with my close friends and relay team, being it 's the last race of the season and we all weren’t going to be in the same age group next year, I had a whole new mind set. I was constantly thinking, “we have to make top ten because we can make top ten.” “We have the times, we have the strength, we have the speed, we just need to have the guts to walk in there like we are going to shred the track into pieces.

  • The Grapes Of Wrath Rhetorical Analysis

    630 Words  | 3 Pages

    In the third chapter of The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck, the author uses diction, symbolism, and imagery to foreshadow the Joad’s family journey to California through the connection with the turtle’s minutest movement. The turtle’s every movement portrays several circumstances that the Joad’s family have to overcome, in order to reach their goal to find reasonable jobs. Both the turtle and Joad’s family is traveling towards the southwest with different levels of obstacles waiting ahead of their journey, thus will provide discomfort with the lack of speed they have to succeed each and every problem. Also we can infer that the Joad’s family is moving really slowly and cautiously, because turtles are meant to be slow on land. So the author uses numerous rhetorical devices to correspond with the endurance of the turtle and the Joad’s family.
