Paroa Beach
As I walk down to the beach a gust of wind blows on my face, I shiver. As I get down to the full view of
the beach the tussocks blow wildly. I keep on walking when Jessie zooms past me, she's like a bullet
she keeps on running and into the waves. The rough waves nearly toss Jess around. I look around for
a good stick while I walk, I feel the strong winds trying to push me back. I pick up a stick “Jess-ie” I call.
Jessie perks her head up out of the waves and sprints over for a game of fetch. I throw the stick for her
a few times until she gets bored. Jessie trots along beside me. I give her a quick pat as a glint of green
catches my eye. I stumble over the tussock and see a shard of green sand, I dig the object out. It's a
smooth green stone. I smile at my third piece of greenstone I've ever found, “come here Jessie '' Jessie
looks my way and walks over to me, she sees the greenstone and gives it a sniff. She cocks her head
sideways and wags her tail. I know not to open my mouth or she’ll try licking the inside of it! I slip it into
my pocket and keep on walking with Jessie at my side. We decided to walk back so we can get a rest
back home. When we get back Jessie laps up some water and snuggles in her basket.

I lie on my bed thinking about what I had done at the beach. The beach is my special place because I
can spend time with my dog and listen to the crashing waves.
