“Rainy Day in a Classroom” by Kendall Dunham

By Kendall Dunham The paper being moved and folded sounds like leaves crunching under my feet. The computer keys mimic the sounds of raindrops as I type. I hear the air conditioner blowing, acting as my wind. I hear someone drop their pencil and it clinks like an acorn on the sidewalk. When you close your eyes and listen you can even hear the creaking of the desks like the creaking of houses. The nature of this room, the atmosphere inside it, is like a calm rainy day.
