HAPPY FLUFF

 Happy Fluff by: Aren Dabaghian

There was fluff all alone in his beautiful house called the fridge. Fluff lived next to a very snobby and cranky neighbor Jelly. Jelly would always complain that Fluff is on his property or Fluff is a worthless food that no wants to enjoy. Fluff would always see the Dabaghian family enjoying the Jelly, while leaving him all alone in the fridge in a very dark corner. Fluff everyday was sad and lonely he wanted to talk to so some one, and have a relationship with some kind of food. He dreamed and wished everyday, that someone would come into his life, and make him very happy. One very special day, Fluff woke up from his sleep and saw Jelly being taken out of he fridge and being thrown into the garbage can. Fluff never believed he would see the day Jelly would be gone! It was the happiest day of his life. But Fluff was still depressed because he has no one to communicate with, everyone else in the fridge have their own lives and don’t communicate with others. Fluff believed his happiness was gone forever. Until the day came when the Dabaghians bought Cherry fluff and gave her a home in the fridge. When Fluff saw Cherry, his mouth was open, and his heart was beating faster than ever. His dream and wish had come true! Cherry was very confused and very worried because it was the first time she had been at the fridge. Fluff stood up like a man, and met Cherry. He said “My name is Fluff, and yours is? Cherry right?” Cherry in return said “Yeah, that’s me, How is it in the fridge” Fluff responded “It was very lonely until I saw you. Cherry blushed and said “That is very nice of you.” From that moment on both Cherry and Fluff knew that they liked each other. Fluff knew his life was complete when he saw Cherry, and Cherry in return was amazed at Fluffs politeness and handsomeness. They were perfect for each other. Fluff and Cherry loved each other, got married and had little cherry fluff kids. Fluff’s dream came true. He lived happily ever after with his beautiful wife Cherry.

Earth,Heaven War,Hell

War, people shouting

War, people dying

A place for suffering

But Earth gives hope

Earth, like an angel she protects

Earth, she connects

Earth, she loves

Earth, she cares

Earth, like a mother she holds on to her children

Earth, is like God helping his children

Without Earth ?!

War, WOULD BE A PLACE LIKE HELL AND LONELINESS!

Earth, OUR MOTHER

In the novel All Quiet On The Western Front the earth represented a motherly figure. When Paul and his fellow soldiers Kat and Muller went to the front to set up bared wires. A HUGE bombardment started and there was nothing to protect Paul, except for the earth's natural features. All the bullets passed Paul and hit the ground, the trees, and the rocks. The earth was protecting Paul, like a mother protecting her child. Paul was emphasizing that the earth was a lifesaver for him. Paul even says during the bombardment “I creep under the yielding thin, cover myself with it, draw it over me, it is wood, cloth, cover.” (67). This shows that during all those bombs are falling and everyone is dying, Paul feels alone, but he always remembers that he has a friend with him, THE EARTH!  He feels that the earth is always with the soldiers, even when the soldiers die, the soldiers are buried on earth. Paul tries to show that the earth never lets go of anyone; it holds them tight and secure. He even says, “To no man does the earth mean so much as to the soldier. When he presses himself down upon her long and powerfully, when he buries his face and his limbs deep in her from the fear of death by shell-fire, than she is his only friend.” (55). I believe that Paul is also trying to show that the earth is also like a good soldier that always looks for others, helps other, protects others, and has a friendship with others. Without the earth Paul would probably say war is like hell, where death and loneliness occurs commonly! Earth is like an angel to these young soldiers, and if you think about now you know why God has created Earth and it’s beautiful features.
