A Turkey I Am:
A Turkey I Am
Hello! My name is Shawna. I'm two years
old and the youngest turkey in our family. I have two sisters and
one brother. Their names are Sharlene, Deandra, and Dusty. They
are always picking on me and making me cry. And they tease me
because I am so small and can't do what they can do. And
everything I do, I seem to do it wrong. My mother is still alive,
but my father got taken by the butcher people and they killed him
to sell in the market. Boy, do I miss him because he was the best
thing in the world to me. But now that he is gone I don't have
anything to do but just sit around in this barn and do nothing
every day except help mother fix our grass beds.
My brother and sisters are always lazy and
never fix their own beds. They always go and play when they are
not supposed to. My mother has a very hard time trying to get them
to listen but they are too spoiled ad always get away with what
they do wrong. I'm the only one that can never get away with
anything, since I am the youngest one in our family.
Two years have passed, and now my mother is
gone. She was also taken by the butchers and sold in the market.
Now there are only me, my brother and sisters. I am always being
picked on but I don't take it that hard now that I am older. I
just leave them alone and try and do things on my own. I always
wish my mother and father were here so that I could be happy and
so I w ouldn't be too lonely. Boy is my family going quick! I
always wondered why they didn't pick different turkeys to kill,
because I really liked my family when we were all here. But I
realize now that someday all of us inour family will be gone,
because the butcher people in this barn will kill us and send us
to the market to be sold. I hate for it to happen to me, because I
want to enjoy life and try and have fun for once.
