     In the winter season, it's very cold. Weather is snowy. Mabel is walking on a sidewalk with her headphones. Mabel is listening to relaxing music. Mabel loves the violin. It’s relaxing to Mabel.

autumn season now. The tree’s leaf is falling down one by one…Weather is rainy. I will go out. I take my umbrella and go out. I feel happy because I love rainy days. I feel soil’s smell. Leafs are on the ground. Mabel won’t tread on a leaf because they maybe feel hurt. Some people tread on a leaf. I feel sad about this. I understand this pain. When I was 6 years my dad died. Mabel don’t have a mom because she left me. Mabel feels lonely but she has friends. Birds, leaves, animals…I have a cat. Her name is Karamel. She is 3 years old.

       THE SEA SURFACE  FOAMS                                      

   I travel with my boat in the sea between Istanbul bridges with a small boat.
I sing my favorite songs in the last voice.I take the snacks I made while I was at home with me from my bag and take small bites.
There are a lot of small cars on the bridge, from afar they all look like a herd of ants, and the cars get bigger and bigger as they get
closer to the bridge.behind my boat there are foams on 

the sea and then those bubbles disappear. I'm watching those bubbles.
The voices of the seagulls were so loud I was muttering while watching the seagulls, in case I had bought bagels for the seagulls.
Every once in a while I watch the sea bubbling on other big ships more than my boat.When they see me, sweet little children wave
 and I respond in the same way.here is one more day in Istanbul when the sea foamed profusely.

      It was a nice day. Greg was sitting in the armchair and thinking about his childhood. There were many events in his memory. Once he was swimming with his mates in the river and he was afraid of big waves. His friend helped him to jump out of the water. He was very grateful.   After that he was thinking his following years and he realized that his childhood was 

the nicest time in his life. When he was naughty, noisy and active boy and he had many dreams and wishes.

                 In A Wonderful World 

          The birds look at the sunset that is lost in the distant horizon. All the paths lead to the wonder of a warm sun that slowly sets in the coolness of the sky filled with clouds that seem to be just a bridal veil that envelops the kingdom above us.

       The non-speaking world takes part in a rare play, in a true miracle that is reflected like a mirror in the tears thrown on the earth cracked by the old age of the days, witnesses of the splendor that lies in these 

lands.

        These deafening moments are fully lived by the helpless creatures, who dance under the open sky, forgetting that there is the next day, the orchestra of birds and crickets perfectly matching the dance of peacocks and the ballet of graceful swans with smooth movements.

         All the spectators are seduced by the dazzling beauty of the world painted by the hand of a gifted painter, all are mesmerized by the red sky in which the angels seem to be fighting hard.

       There were many clouds in the sky. It was going to rain, but I try to cheer up. I called my friend and told her that   I wanted to go to the cinema. She agreed with me. In the evening we went to the cinema, but I was on a bad mood. I didn’t know why. It was an interesting movie. On our way home I received a text message. I felt terrible. My grandma had a heart attack. I went to the hospital and I saw her pale face. She was so happy. She recovered soon and we lived together for a long time.

                      The Sun

     When I was a child it always seemed to me that in winter the Sun was angry. It froze everything and it offends us because we didn’t like winter. In summer the Sun was kind and it wasn’t angry. Many people agree with me that summer is the most beautiful season of the year, even when it rains. The sun is warm. It makes our life happy and wonderful. The Sun is my best friend because it is always with me.

                   FAMILY

       have a very happy family, but they are always busy. In my free time, I always stay alone. It is very boring and sad. But suddenly I understand that I have lots of things to do. I become very happy. Then my parents have lots of free time. They say that I don't worry about them. I become very calm and relaxed. I like this.

                              Beauty of Music     

         Every country has different culture, traditions  and so on. Music  gives each country individuality.  When I listen to the Turkish song and I observe  its  tune about love and heartbreak. I can say that my country is characterized by similar music.  It is difficult to find a pleasant background for a song  like this,  but while listening to the song, I feel that it tells a lot about  the country the best. 

Love and heartbreak are close to each other, however, along with the beauty of nature, this is its regularity, which is why love is often compared to the beauty of nature. That’s why it gives me great emotions, nice feeling and pleasure. Without music our life won’t be interesting.

            OLD PLAQUE

         That day was still in my mind. The music and the pictures are all ... I still feel the music in my ears, but it needs to be refreshed.

         Wait a minute, why don't I ask the antique dealers. I asked but didn't get an answer from any of them. I better talk to my friends. I called my friends and we started the conversation.

-How are you doing? I asked.

- I am fine, you?

- I am not bad.

-Y

ou sound a little bad, did something happen?

- I'm just a little tired, I said and knocked on the door. I put down the phone and jumped out. There was no one. What is that? I saw a small box and took it inside. There were many records. I listened to all the records. One of them had renewed that feeling in my ears. It was very beautiful. I started thinking about who sent it. At that moment my phone rang. I picked up the phone and heard my friend's voice. Loud:

- You were born well, he said.

-Did you like my gift?

- A great gift, thank you very much.

Why does your voice sound bad?

I remembered the old days. My favorite music came to mind. My feelings have been renewed. Thank you so much.

           I continued to listen to the music with pleasure.

                      RADIO

      We were all at the radio together, while sipping the hot tea with its freshly brewed, that song played suddenly, yes, it was that song, it was also played at our weddings. It was very emotional, that song that came to us from Anatolia was circulating in everybody's language. Suddenly everyone started to brood. Like them, I was deep in thought. Why, why and to whom was this song written? Is it because of your pain, excitement, maybe happiness. Nobody knew. I suddenly tried to get out of those thoughts and regain myself at

my mother's nudging. I was still in the thoughts of that song when everyone was suddenly rising and going to their beds. I just couldn't stop myself from her rhythm. People would listen as they listened...

                      Seaside

       It was a windy day. Sam wanted to go to the seaside but the sea was stormy. He went to the beach. His mum was nervous. He swam in the sea and was playing with the waves. There were few people in the sea. Suddenly a big wave crashed him. A lifeguard helped  and saved him. He returned home and told everything to his mum.She was crying. He promised that he would be carefull with waves in the stormy sea. He hug his mum and drank hot tea together.

               Music in our lives

      Music is a part of all of our lives, from when we’re growing up to when we’re old. We grow up to the sound of our mothers singing us lullabies so that we’d go to sleep.Music is one of the most calming and soothing things if you let it be. It comes from melodies and tunes strung together by people who sing and play musical instruments. The power of music shows in the simplest of things, such as when you absentmindedly tap your foot to a beat or hum a tune unknowingly.

Music is not only created by people, but it is also all  

around us in nature. In the mornings, when the crickets and the birds chirp, it is music. The loud sound of the waves in the ocean swishing, the whistle in the wind, and the sound of trees and leaves rustling are all their own forms of music.

                  Mermaid

      Once upon a time a mermaid lived in the depths of Maiden's Tower. One day this mermaid came out of the depths of the sea, sat on a rock and started to sing. Hearing the beautiful voice of the mermaid, Alison wanted to sing along. The mermaid, who thought no one had heard of her, was frightened when she saw Alison. Alison said the mermaid has a beautiful voice. She said that the name of the mermaid who got over her fear was Mariya and they became friends. They sang and had fun together.

                   Isabelle

       It happened in mountains. A young witch named Isabelle was gathering herbs. She was young, brave and cunning. All people in the village told   different things about her. Someone said she had a third eye or even that she was immortal. There were even rumors that men fell in love with her when they just saw her.

           People were afraid of her. She was kind once. But when she heard that people talked about her, she began to hate them.

               Years have passed………………..

She has grown up thinking that people are bad. But one event has changed all. One day she went to the mountains to get herbs for a new drink. She was wearing her amulet.  The amulet was not simple. In it there was the whole her strength. That day while she was picking up flowers accidentally she lost it. When she came home, she noticed that she lost it.

 At that moment she ran for it but she saw only an old man. When the man saw her, he realized that the amulet was her and without hesitation he gave the amulet to her.

 Since that meeting she understood that not all people are bad.

               Sunset On The Beach

      On a hot summer day, my family and I decided to go to the beach to watch the sunset and at the same time, to disconnect from everything to relax and calm down. We were on a little vacation, by  a few days, in Mamaia Resort.

When I reached the seaside, I felt a slight joy, happiness, as if I felt in my skin. I had never felt so good.

The sea breeze hit me lightly in the face, making my hair fly. The ball of fire slowly, slowly, approached the

moment when it had to hide behind the horizon. Its rays were very bright. I took off my slippers and began to walk slowly through the fine, warm sand. 

I liked it so much to watch the frothy waves coming with force and crashing into the huge tetrapods. The sound of the sea is my favorite music. It was so soothing to listen to the sea and I felt like I was a bird and flying among  fluffy, white clouds. I stretched out my hands, closed my eyes, and tried to listen to nature, God's creation.  I was so excited that my family and I

were watching the most beautiful spectacle offered by the amazing nature, namely the sunset. I saw how light and darkness intertwined and the environment was immersed in a multitude of intense and impressive colors. Orange and red were  some of these colors. 

I don't know why, but the beauty of the sky and the sea simply charged me with positive energy. One of the most penetrating landscapes I've seen is this one by the sea, on the beach. It is a miracle of nature. I simply moved away from problems, stress and enjoyed

the moments with my loved ones, my family members, listening to the voice of nature and theirs, in this way.

                  Little Puppy

      On a rainy day, Elif was watching out of the window. The rain didn't stop. He could not go out because it was getting more violent. At that time, his door was knocked. His father entered the room with a box in his hand. Elif wondered what was in the box. His father left the box in his hand on the carpet. Did the box move a little, did it seem like that to Elif? Elif immediately opened the box and looked at the puppy that came out of it and was surprised. The little puppy

jumped up and jumped into Elif's lap. Elif loved her dog very much. They went everywhere together. He was buying a lot of things for his dog; food bowls, clothes, bed… Over time, his room was filled with his dog's belongings. Elif and her dog grew up together.
