http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/33772230



When I was young I lived in a town of Sakai in Hiroshima.


with my mother, father, brothers and systers.


Our house was right by the ocean. I enjoyed watching


the sunset and picking flowers and exploring the village.


Sometimes I would climbe up to the top of the


tree. So I could see the beautiful ocean glittering in


the sunshines.


My best friend Hitoshi would waite for me under the


tree and we would spend hours chatting about the hope


for the future. I liked him a lot so when he told me he


wanted to be a wrter, when he grew up. I replied,


I will be a poet then.


The morning of the bomb was just like any other


I remenber mum was at home and I was getting


ready to walk to work. at Ministry of communicaton


in Hiroshima. Because so many young men were away


fighting in a war. They want enough people to do


all the job. So children like me one may to leave school


and go to work intent.


I was standing by a window on the 3rd floor, when I saw


a powerful flash. I thought the sound and going down


In a split second I saw rainbow coloreed ray everywhere.


That was a moment bomb ???


I must have lost conciousness, Because, when I woke


up I wasn't by the window. and I realized I hurt my head.


Somehow I got up and started heading at fire.


A woman helpt me and walk me to hospital. Our city was


completely destroyed. On the I noticed how there were


no buildings and no cats, or dogs, even no birds or butterflies.


There were justpeople wandering around the bay
