The New Country International Christian School, Lo, Ava - 9 As the silence grows in the city Cars drive on the busy street. The market feels crowded with people Walking with dragging feet. Where the ocean stays calm, Ships sail slowly across the sea. The waves splash the pier, Reflecting the sun so shiny. Patterns unfold on women’s tunics, Men’s shoes clack on the ground. Cars honk and people shout “Cheap sale coming out!” Together makes a noisy sound. Traditional houses cover the village, Painted with wonderful creatures. People’s amazing imaginations, Leads to a special culture. The lights went off, Into their comfy beds Dressed with soft blankets They lay down and rest. The sunset was harmony, All the noise went low another day was over Below the faded sky.
