Milos

3-31-09


Dear Zeus,

I know that there must be a lot of people that want to replace your brother Poseidon but I hope you pick me because I love the ocean and all of its dwellers.

Why you should pick me is because I like all of the sea creatures. But my favorite is the shark,manta ray and the lion fish. If you pick me I could probably learn how to ride the manta ray. Yeah that's right you can ride a manta ray! Did you know that the manta ray can grow to 25 feet and weigh up to 5000 pounds? Also the sea creatures come in all shapes and sizes. Some can be up to 30 feet and some can be 5 inches.



Secondly I like to swim, if you saw me swimming at my pool you would be surprised at how good I am. My favorite place to swim is a man made lake in Scarborough. I mostly like to snorkel at the lake. I also like to swim in my pool because it is clean,warm and clear.


Lastly water covers 70% of the world and if you pick me I will keep the oceans clean by picking up any trash that someone throws into the ocean. I will stop people from hunting endangered animals like whales and sea turtles by telling them that they are killing them and if they don't listen I shall create a giant wave to send them back home. That is why I want to be Poseidon.


Sincerely,
Milos

Milos, I love your first paragraph and how you say, "I love the ocean and all of its dwellers." I also love your second paragraph and how you give so many facts about the sea creatures. It really drew me in. I like your conclusion, too, especially because you listed what you would do if Zeus picked you.
