Congratulations to our Grade 10 winning author: Sonam Ludhani!

Tauntingly Taking

Beneath each sparkle of snow lays a spark of ingenuity; underneath each droplet lays a dormant potential. Nature has given us much, but today I can only see my Vanessa.

Snowflakes whistle past as we admire the gossamer shrubs as delicate as her transparent face. She shudders with the intense cold. Suddenly, she trembles against me in a racking fit while I helplessly cradle her in this burning cold park. Within seconds she is gone.

Behind each sparkle lays a moment of hesitation; underneath each droplet lays an unattainable potential; Mother Nature, the ultimate giver or the eternal taker?
