When
I was a boy and first learning about the world, I took a big risk. I was
playing in the yard outside of my family’s house with my friends. It was a hot
day, and we were resting in the shady side of our house. One of my friend dared
me to climb the coconut tree in our yard. I looked at the tree. It was mature
and very tall, but a little bit curved. I had seen men climbing these tree, and
it looked easy, but I had never tried before. I wanted to show my courage, so I
said I world. The tree was scratchy. but I found place for my feet and hands
and soon I was near the top . But then the tree began to move in the breeze.
Suddenly I fell. There was a great pain in my arm. My friend ran to tell my
mother who took me to the hospital. I had a broken. I felt bad for a long time
after that. And the worst part was broken. I felt bad to walk past the coconut
tree and remember my foolish risk.
