Ballad

Thoreau and Bryant had similar works from the fact that they were different from everyone else's point of view and, they saw their different subjects similarly. Thoreau saw solitude as a refreshing and wonderful thing to experience and Bryant saw death as a really wonderful thing, not lonely and sad. They also brought nature into their ideas as a companion and in some instances a divine being. Thoreau had some quiet, alone time with nature and writes that "some of my pleasantest hours were…

The next day John went to talk to Hawaii but Hawaii didn’t care about what John was saying. Hawaii thought that she was a woman, and she was going to do whatever she wanted to regardless of what anyone said. “Hawaii, my wife told me that she saw you with guys in your bedroom last night. Look, we don’t have a problem with you staying here, but we don’t want you bringing guys in our house without our approval. So don’t let it happen again. Do you here me?” Hawaii rolled her eyes and said, “Yeah,…

1. B.1 You feel a rush of adrenaline as it fills your body with the hot exciting sensations, and your mind suddenly starts to clear. You concentrate on the wolf’s footing, where it is stepping, how it is moving. The wolf’s shoulder blades tense up and relax as if it were telling you something. As if it were warning you. The wolf takes a single step back and then lunges forward at your right side. Your body flinches out of the way without you even having to think about it. The wolf assumes its…

Chapter sixteen ***Carson 's P.O.V*** "Oliver, wanna come with me to grab something from my locker?" I asked him, before gym. He nodded, smiling. He stood up and took my hand as we walked to the locker rooms. As soon as we got there he had me pinned against a locker and was slamming his lips to mine. I smiled, but kissed back. "I told you they were fucking!" I pulled away and saw Cassidy and Dave. Cassidy had rolled her eyes at his statement and smiled. Oliver turned around and hugged me and…

When I first saw him, I was shocked. He sat there, smiling and crying while the rain fell. His eyes stayed on the little girl riding the carousel, probably his sister. I could see what my brother saw in him. He was cute in a plain kind of way. Short brown hair peeking out under his weird hat, sparkling hazel eyes, and a smile that could rival Frank Sinatra’s. “He has the best smile Mary.” As I walked up to him, I noticed worry lines permeate his face. His sparkling eyes contained a sense of…

“Crap, I slept in way too late.” At the beginning of the week, Leah Davis told herself she would wake up early and go shopping. Her fridge was almost empty and she was working long hours every day. She had gone to bed at 11:30 last night and forgot to set her alarm. Now it was 10:30 ‘Whatever’ she thought ‘I deserve a break. I’ve worked so hard, I totally deserve this.’ With that she got out of bed, walked to the bathroom and took a shower. Thirty minutes later she walked out of her apartment…

“After all this nigga put you threw, he still got yo nose wide open. Don’t you see?” “See what? You beating around the bush bitch what?” “This is yo opportunity to get back at the nigga!” “Okay, I don’t follow.” “Listen, you agree to it right, but instead of being a silent partner you ask for all of his shit. That way you can beat him at his own game. You know everything there is to know about the business thanks to yo dad… Interrupting her in mid-sentence I replied, “Thanks to my dad, I grew…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Cindy, I first met you in grade 9 French class. I still remember sitting one row behind you. The first interaction we had was probably when we were doing a French activity where we were supposed to meet someone and find out more about them. I was using a pen at the time and somehow managed to spell your name wrong, so I crossed it out, scribbling messily around my paper. As time passed, I was miserably failing my tests, while you were pretty much getting perfect on each one. I…

It is incredible to imagine how quickly your life can change. In a twinkling of an eye all could be destroy and lost in the past, with a choice that we have to make in order to change our future. Today is the funeral of my father, the person I love the most, the most important man in my life. In the morning when I woke up anything looks different, it was a normal day with a sad gray sky as Lima normally has. But for me something disappeared, a piece of my heart was broken, the person who used…
