Lexington and concord
Guess waht? we had a reanactment of the first battle of the revolutionary war and i had to write an essay about how it feels to die:
The Lexington Green
by Will Etkin
I am a soldier without a name, an orphan, you could say. I never really knew any of my comrades that well because I was put in this troop all so suddenly with no idea what I was supposed to do.
I knew I was going to die. My trigger arm was injured by a vicious crossfire in a previous battle. I could not defend myself on the day my fate was sealed. It was a beautiful sunny day, the birds were chirping a relaxing tune and there were little squirrels scurrying about getting in everyone s way
We began our marching drills at the encampment that very morning. The march leaders were shouting orders at the tops of their lungs and we were following their immensely loud, irritating orders so that nobody would break ranks and be executed. I honestly felt that the king didn t care how many people died as long as the rebels were put in line. This thought made the sickening bleakness I felt at the pit of my stomach far more intense. I tried to quiet my thoughts and let the wind relax me a bit. It didn t work.
About an hour later we began our march to the Lexington Green where our battle would be held. We stepped in unison, first to the left, and then to the right. I saw several rebels hiding in the bushes but Commander Gage would not allow me the permission to speak during our bleak march into the darkened abyss. We arrived about a half hour later at the Lexington Green where our opponents stood at the ready waiting for us. I normally didn t know the names of the soldiers around me. Now was no exception.
I waited for the first shot, even though I could not shoot back. A cannon was fired. It did not hit anyone but it exploded on the ground near us and several shards of iron flew through the air and hit at least half of our troops.
A peirce of hot iron hit me in the side. I fell to the ground and twitched for a few moments, and then I lay still. My life flashed before my eyes. I saw my first trip to the orphanage and the horrible food they served everyday except for Sunday dinners. I remembered my fostering parents and the kindness they bestowed upon me. And I remember that I still have yet to be given a name.
I felt cold. It started at my fingers and my toes and moved up through the rest of my body and made a burning feeling after the cold subsided. I looked at the now brilliant blue sky, and the clouds, and the trees, and the beautiful birds flying through the air. The beautiful picture began to dim, my eyes slowly closed, and I slipped into the dark abyss.
When I awoke, I was laying in soft green bed, and the room that surrounded me seemed to be made up entirely of clouds. I looked up and saw a smiling woman. I knew I was home.
