It was my brother's birthday today.
So we went to Adventure World for the day.
I went on lots of rides,
including some awesome waterslides.
But the scariest ride was the Abyss.
Even though the Abyss is creepy I didn't want to miss.
When we were waiting in line I was so scared with fear!
I thought I might shed a tear.
That's it, I'm on! I can't chicken out.
As I head into darkness I start to doubt.
We are all screaming and we don't know where next.
Then we see a flashing speck.
Somebody has taken our photo oh no.
I can tell you one thing my face isn't going to glow.
I'm too scared to move but at least I tried.
So hopefully I see on the other side.
