We find a bench we like I have to go find someone to help us because it is really heavy and we wont be able to lift it, my mom turns her back for one second and my little sister tries to lift the bench herself. I turn around and see the bench crush her and she is laying under neath it, she isn’t crying, screaming or laughing. She isn’t conscious. I yell at my mom and we both go down to the ground. “help us!” my mother yells and no one comes, I get up go and find help and call the ambulance. They get there and take my little sister away with the lights flashing, the siren wailing and driving as fast as a race car. My mom went with them, I walk home traumatized hoping she will be okay. All I can do is hope nothing bad will happen.

Me and my mom head into the arena after we have a snack in our living quarters horse trailer. We sat on the bench and prayed that his ride will be a good one and he will be safe during his 8 seconds. Its his last ride and the worst thing could be would be for him to get hurt and worst die.

We got into the arena and watch him ride he makes a safe ride and he doesn’t get hung up he jumps off and is so happy with his ride he throws his hat into the crowd and lies on the ground crying because he is so happy. All of our family is so happy and go back to the trailer and celebrate and have beers and sit on the bench. That was the perfect last ride for my dad.

find a bench and sit down

they have been fighting

for a long time, she says

it’s time they talk about

what is going on

he sits down and they start

talking, he starts screaming,

he gets up , slaps her and storms off

she sits on the bench and starts to bawl

nobody knows what they are talking about

but it couldn’t have been good.

The next day on their way to work they stop at a small coffee shop to get some breakfast. They both sit down at a bench. Joe sits across from Lucy he is about to pull something out of his pocket but their pagers go off they look at them and it’s an emergency in the hospital, they get up and head to the hospital. It’s a trauma patient the little boy and his friends were jumping of his roof and landed a little boy landed straight on his back and now he can’t move. The little boys friend knew that when someone is hurt to call 911. The little boy’s parents weren’t home, his friend runs around the house into the kitchen and pick up the phone. He looks for the 9 the 1 and the 1. He dials it and the lady picks up on the other line, he tells her what’s wrong and the lady says just stay calm and don’t move the boy and stay beside him. In the next 5 minutes the ambulance fire truck and cop car comes to the boy’s house. They load him up in the helicopter and take him to the Miami hospital for a trauma patient.

The little boy is only 5 years old. He has no idea how bad this actually is they take him into surgery right when he gets to the hospital, they had to fly the little boy in the helicopter from his farm outside of North Port. 21 hours later they figure out that he broke his spine fractured his neck and sprained his ankle. They don’t know what caused him not to be able to move but they just know that he will be able to walk again and that the little boy is lucky. This boy must have had all the luck with him and god looking over him because most people with a broken spine and fractured neck don’t come out very well.

 Joe and Lucy head back into a room where all the staff can go after a stressful surgery, they sit on a bench and start talking. Lucy is noticing he is acting weird and is shaking she doesn’t think any more of it she just thinks he is still shaken up from the late night and long surgery. The room is filled with all their friends and people they work with. Joe goes down on one knee and says “before a trauma patient comes in I’m going to do this now… Lucy Pronger will you marry me?”  She jumps up into his arms and says of course I will. He puts the ring on her finger and she looks at him and says” I love it and love yow with all my heart and I knew since the day we started going out that you were they one. You always make me smile your funny, smart, you know everything about me, and you’re all I can ask for. I love you Joe.” Everyone in the room claps and congratulates them. Within 5 minutes the trauma light goes off and everyone gets back to work. They have a 21-year-old patient come in from texting and driving he is not conscious and can’t breathe on his own. This call doesn’t involve Lucy so she is going to get some coffee and relax. She sits on the couch and all her girlfriends gather around her and admire her ring. She loves Joe so much and would do anything for him, without him she would be lost she tells her friends.

That night Joe and Lucy go out and celebrate their engagement, they are so thrilled. They go home and sit on the couch get out the address book and look up all of their family and friends to call them and tell them the exciting news, first they call their parents, then grandparents, then uncles and aunts, then cousins then all the rest of their family and friends.

In the next few weeks Joe and Lucy start getting all the plans ready like what they will have to eat, what kind of flowers, what kind of cake and the most important Lucy said her dress. Lucy is so ecstatic about getting to wear a wedding dress, they came to a conclusion that they don’t have a budget for how much the dress will cost. They decided since they were both doctors and they had plenty of money they didn’t need to sweat about not having enough money to buy the perfect wedding dress for Lucy. Joe calls the wedding planner and decides they will meet at the Central park tomorrow at 2:00pm. They said they will meet in front of the benches surrounding the water park and water fountain. They decide everything with the wedding planner, what it will look like, the colors, how many people will be there, what they will eat, how big the cake is, everything you can imagine. When they decided it all they go back to work.

In the next month Joe and Lucy are walking down the aisle at Lucy’s parents house outside around the big water fountain, they are all gathered with their family and friends. Its everything they could imagine and wish for. They are so blessed to have all of their family and friends to be there. After the ceremony they go to the hall and have a dance. They have their first dance and everyone’s eyes filled with tears. They are finally hitched and so glad they are looking forward to living there life with each other and to start a family.

down the old highway, around the corner

and back to the school

this year it was different

he came with us he didn’t ditch

us and go see his friends he stayed

with me and my friends to walk with us

he has changed  I didn’t think he would

I like the new him and I like the way he is

we finish the run and go back into the school

we all sit down on the bench and he comes over

he doesn’t go with his friends and skip out

he comes and sits by me

he sure has changed.

were sitting on the bench

outside my house

 she was rocking some

blue and green shorts

with a blue t-shirt on

she was looking good

any guy would want her

I’m so lucky to have

her as my angel

I love you!

E- everyone’s butts sits on it

N- never spit on them

C- choose where you sit, watch for wet paint

H- have a good time

I walk into your room

You are laying in your bed

I can see the pain in your eyes

My eyes fill with tears

I leave the room because

I don’t want you to see me cry

I go into the lobby and sit on the

Bench beside my auntie

I fall apart I lose it and start bawling

She holds me close and comforts me

I gather myself and we talk about you

and how many memories we have with you

she told me not to think about the bad things

that are happening right now but to think about

all the good memories we have with you

I can’t imagine you not being there

I miss you!

his hockey game

he skates up and down the ice

he gets a suicide pass and gets rocked

he struggles to get up and skate over to the bench

something  isn’t right at all

he doesn’t finish the game he sits

on the bench for the rest of the game

after the game he comes out

he tells me that we need to go

to the hospital right away

his left shoulder is 5 inches below his other

we leave the rink and head to the hospital
