They were in It




  Every morning, Tessa and Zachary walked to school, and every afternoon they walked home again.



  If it was hot, they walked in the shade.

  If it was cold, they put on a jumper.

  If it was just right, they smiled and said AHHHHHHH!

  And everyday they looked for ten tiny things.



  What an excellent walk. It was slow and simple and splendiferous.



  It was the world

  and they were in it.

A Green and Clean Machine




  It was a green machine.

  It was a clean machine.

  They climbed inside where it was cosy and comfortable and calm.

  They rode all the way home and it was smooth and swift.

  They looked for the ten tiny things, but the world whizzed past their windows like a big, foggy blur.
