3、ike whizzing past;the beep of a rubbish truck reversing.On The Green I could smell.the newly cut grass;a cool summer breeze;some dry beer that had been spilt;On The Green I could feel.the texture of the rough path;the prickly grass;a wrinkly leaf;the despair of a child who wants a park where she can

4、 go and feel safe.by Ella S2On The Green I could hear.the banging of gates as they secure the bowling green;the delicate song of a single bird calling for a friend;a roaring sound coming from the mouth of a herbivore chasing after its feast;the pandemonium of cars racing along the roads;the tremendo

5、us sound of travelling bees.On the Green I could see.colourful butterflies roaming, not bothering anyone;a stage especially made for speeches and discussions;a desolate rose bed pleading for colour and company;the adolescent trees were not controlled or looked after;sticks smothering the path, cover

6、ing the dullness.On The Green I could smell.the freshly cut grass travelling through the breeze;the petrol stench from the lawnmower;the scent of flowers flowing through the air.On The Green I could feel.the uneven path sliding under my feet;the crunching of glass shattering under my feet as I walke

7、d;the roughness of the trees as I slide my fingers around it.My fear for this park grows stronger because it gets more dangerous every second.By Kirsty G3 On The Green I could hear.gates clashing and bottles smashing all over the park.birds tweeting, cars squeakingphones ringing, lawnmower cuttingOn

9、n The Green I could smell.petrol from the cars cruising along the road.By Joseph Worrell4On The Green I could see Yellow, well grown, roses; humans strolling by with their pets; a freshly, cut grass from the Bowling Green; fluttering, birds in the colourful sky; a white fairy flying in the fresh bre

10、ezy air; green enormous bushes waving.On The Green I could smell petrol from the big lawnmower; flowers giving out their breezy smell; burning from a terrible, bonfire from the club; cut green grass from the lawnmower.On The Green I could hear birds whistling in their nests; bees buzzing around in t

11、he breeze; cars speeding up and down all over; lawnmower going up and down.On The Green I could touch trees with leaves; green bars around the edges; the bumpy path; the swings, which have been wrapped over the top bar.By Jade B5On The Green I could see . the newly put up goal post insects crawling

12、everywhere, butterflies and buzzing bees landing on the delicate flowers.All the swings crying to be unwrapped from around the bars.On The Green I could hear .the lawnmower, cutting the grass.a motor bike starting its power full engine.All the children having a long chat.When you close your eyes you

On The green I could smell .the smell of freshly cut grass,and a sort of burning metal,I couldnt identify it.On The Green I could touch .the swing, slide, climbing frame and feel the rusty metal, I could touch the new goal post

14、and feel its paintwork. Mandy A6On The Green I could seederelict toilets plastered with spray paints and wallpaper ripped off;the bent fences destroyed by vandalism; the buzzing bees and fluttering butterflies scattered all around us; And the litter thrown around on the floor.On The Green I could hearnoisy dogs barking loudly;whizzing cars going by with the music on loud;the rattling vans and banging gates making a clanging noise; and the happy birds singing in the wind.On The Green I could smellfood that tastes so delicious;scented roses that sway in the wind;the disgraceful smell o
