Broken Glass

Clare Wu (9) | STAFF REPORTER

It was such a funny thing, language. Sounds and pronunciations, falling into line. Obscene chaos – forced into obedience. Letters and vowels and consonants. A language created something from nothing. He was perfectly in love with life, with living, speaking. Projecting his thoughts to the heavens, sharing this joy of his to whomever would pause, just listen. No matter who it was, he’d greet them with a warm smile, words already bubbling past his lips, eager to please, to laugh, to exist.  But the people in this cruel world mistook his excitement for naivete. Their own conversations spilled into his world, mocking and taunting and painful. Chatterbox, they called him. Couldn’t he ever shut up? Slowly, ever so slowly, their words slipped into his mind.
His happy inane chatter stopped. He bottled up his emotions, hid his smile, showed the world what they wanted to see. read more

The poppy is the enduring symbol of the First World War. It is strongly connected to Armistice Day (November 11), the day where the Allies signed the peace treaty. Poppies were a common sight, especially on the Western Front, and that is what gave John McCrae the inspiration to write his poem, In Flanders Fields. Poppies are worn in Canada to commemorate the soldiers throughout our country’s history who have given their lives in fighting for our country. Every year on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day, our nation pauses in a moment of silence to honour and remember the men and women who have served, and continue to serve Canada during times of war, peace, and conflict. read more

Take Away the Stuffing

It was going to destroy me. 

Little black orbs, devoid of personality, locked their gaze with mine. The rowdy children around faded away. No matter how long I tried to scare it, to intimidate it with my growls, to put fire into my eyes, it refused to look away. Its arms dangled by its side, hiding no weapons or explosives. A little cute pink ribbon was tied around its neck, flapping in the cooling breeze. As if to hide its true danger behind a layer of innocence. read more
