Short Life! Poem by LaTijera Gipson

Short Life!



Fire is everywhere, I can hear my mother on the outside, screaming, 'my baby in there get her out of that house'. I heard the fire trucks and the sound of shuttered glass. Someone had began to speak. 'Is there anyone in here'?
As soon as i had began to speak, the smoke had taken over me, it feeled my mouth i could no longer breath.
I feel to the floor, flames was beneath me. And then there stood a man at my feet. Soon my body was numb. and the man finally got me.
He scooped me up, & then carried me. i was taken to the hospital.
When mama talk to the nurse
They had made her cry. I knew right then, they had already told her that,
i had died! ! !
