100 Word Challenge Week #5

My Special Item

      The handle clenches in my hand whenever I ride a horse, feeling right to me. It looks like a long purple stick to other people, but to me it is a very important horseback riding tool. It gets the lazy mare trotting when she doesn't listen to the kicks I give her, and the small whack on the shoulder from it encourages her to behave. The day my Mom and I bought it, along with my other riding supplies, I don't think we realized how long it would help me for. Now, I will not leave the stable without it.

  1. Hello Neonorange,
    I think I know what your most precious item is, but I'm not sure what it is called. I like the vocabulary you have chosen e.g. clenches, lazy mare, and whack. I appreciate the way your writing tells a story, and isn't just a list of reasons why your item is special to you. Congratulations on completing your first 100 Word Challenge.
    Sincerely,
    Mrs. Van
