Gone Forever By: Charolette Deihl

Glaciers crumble, woodlands are falling, bright colors seen in the woods.

A bang is echoing throughout the woods, all the animals running away from the sound.

A couple fall to the ground.

Numbers are shrinking, smaller and smaller, pushed out of their own home.

Some leave this world forever, to never return, never to be seen again, hunted out by man. some for meat, some for skin, some for fun, and gone again.

On the prairie, in the woods, on the cliffs of mountains high.

Caught by nets in the water.

Hunted for one thing and gone again.

Still some unknown, gone before even found, never to be known at all.

38

Some recover, others may have no chance.

We can be careless sometimes, never knowing the result.

Every creature is one of God’s, as we also are God’s creation.

Shots eco throughout all the lands, over and over, again and again, they can fall to the ground by the tens.

Day by bay they fall.

You can find their bones in a lot of places.

Some poisoned, hunted, and tracked till the last one falls, never seen walking again.

Some called dangerous, some called harmless, some are the opposite of what we think.

Innocent animals hit the ground.

Some asleep forever, never to wake again.

Hello!

On behalf of the TypeWrite staff I would like to thank you for your incessant support over quarantine and into the first issue of the school year. We were delighted by the amount of individuals that were willing to purchase the magazine to continue to witness Oak Farm students use this platform for their creative work.

As many of you know, TypeWrite has brought on interns this year to balance the daunting workload that this business has proven to be. With any new venture, there is always a learning curve where mistakes are bound to be made in order to learn more efficiently. As in TypeWrite’s mission statement that it is meant to be “student operated”, I used best judgment and was almost entirely hands-off for the production of the previous issue. I am rightly proud of the work the interns have accomplished thus far, but we do apologize for any minor mistakes made. TypeWrite has always been a space for creativity and education, and we appreciate your grace as we continue to learn the ropes.

In this issue you can expect continuations of the heart-warming stories from the previous issue, apowerful environmental piece, and a lovely poem. The students of Oak Farm never cease to amaze me, and this issue is no different.

Peace, Claire Weiss CEO and Editor of TypeWrite magazine Personal: cweiss@oakfarmms.com Business: typewrite@oakfarmms.com
