Diary of a Light Bulb by Nikki

Hi, my name is Light Bulb! Everybody wants to buy me at the light bulb store. A man named Sam picked me up, but I burned his hand! He threw me away into the garbage can, and I went all the way to the dump truck. I was so scared. When I got to the dump, there was not ONE piece of garbage there. I was surprised. Finally, someone saw me. He picked me up and saw my price tag, and he said, “You shouldn’t be here. You should be in the light bulb store. How did you get here?” I said, “I don’t know.” He said, “Well, did someone throw you away?” “Yes,” I said, “someone tried to turn me on, but by accident I burned him. That’s what happened!” The man drove me to the light bulb store, and he bought me himself! Now I live with him! I light up his house when it’s dark!
