Excitement Stories

I love to go to the amusement park Spending a wonderful day with my kids Sometimes we stay until dark A few times we’ve eaten BBQ Ribs We go every week like clock work I bet in three years we’ve gone a hundred times It would drive most people berserk My kids never complain about the long lines Our favorite rides are the roller-coasters We enjoy going very fast We never want it to go slower We have an absolute blast The sp...

My eyes beat the alarm, My thoughts nice and warm.Waking with a start.Anticipation in my heart, Planning for fun ahead,Mind clear of dreadLike the last day of school.Packing each one of my tools. My baby is too far away,I miss her every day,Thinking of all her charmsSoon she'll be in my arms, I bubble with excitement,Like completing an assignment,The project is perfect;The reward to collect. Only a short time to wait,Then...

They’re what I’d call natural guitarists. Edge is good in has own way, but not as good as Jack or Jimmy. Jack and Jimmy together, in concert, w...

The thunder boomed the lighting cracked I sat up in bed The air was electric My pulse pounded My heart sped Chills danced up and down my arms Opening the door I stepped outside The sky's dark The rain beating down Then a flash and the world lit up Everything shown in a monochrome of black and white It was like a sirens song this storm in the dead of the night In a trance I stepped out in the yard Another thunder clap and...

Late the next morning, when Mr Robin Redtummy sang outside her front door, the little fat fairy rolled out of bed, sleepy but excited! She showed the stately bird her dress, and the fireflies (whom he promised not to eat – he told her they gave him indigestion anyway). Mr Robin Redtummy was most impressed by the wonderful Daisy dress, and he wished the little fat fairy well, making her promise to tell him all about the ba...

Running through Their house to the front door Theo and Rowan excited from hanging decorations, come to me shouting see what I have done! Love swelling From my heart I look with wonder At their tree Sweet children You have magic That gives me courage To go on.
