100 Word Challenge #10

People stop and stare at me. Sometimes if I'm lucky they will take my picture. Children always have an urge to climb on me, a cold stiff statue. Stuck in one spot, wishing I could stretch my legs and run like the children who play around me. I dream of having a voice to talk to my friends. I get tired of staring right ahead, and my arm gets weak as it is always in the air. When a bird stops on my shoulder, I wish I could reach out and touch it, but I am just a statue.

    I really like how you were acting and telling us what the statue wish it could do. But why are the others there? Why are the wearing that?

    I like how you used the statue's perspective for your story and good choice of words. I think your story was good overall !

    Great story! I like how you used the statue's perspective. The sentence where you say "stuck in one spot..." it doesn't seem like a full sentence, exactly. Maybe you could say "I'm always stuck in one spot..."

    I liked you story and how you took on the perspective of the statue. I really like the sentence, "Children always have an urge to climb on me".
