Dust storm

“The Storm” written by Kate Chopin is a controversial story about a brief love affair between past lovers, both whom are married to other people.

For example, my initial reaction of the short story was that it was a story of deception; it was also hard to follow…

I love art. The rain harshly battered on the window that night, keeping me wide awake. As Mom was cooking downstairs, I ventured into her room in hopes of finding something to keep me occupied in the stormy night. Then I saw it. A “paintbrush” sitting on her desk and a blank “canvas” next to it, waiting to be claimed by a certain mini Picasso. I climbed onto a towering chair, grasped the brush with nimble fingers, then wobbled towards the canvas. After hard contemplation and a deep breath, I…

The eye of the storm can be understood as an allusion to the bed ridden Elizabeth Hunter, who is the still centre in the tempest of emotions she rouses in those around her: her nurses, children lawyer and friends.

The restless storm roared through the icy dull sky. The emptiness of the night was soon filled with the sound of heavy raindrops, as they splattered fiercely on the pavement. It was slightly peculiar, as the rain never fell to this extent in the summer. I was making my way home from school in the city, with my clothes and blonde hair drenched. My last resort was a dilapidated barn I found refuge in –around ten kilometres away from my home the last of the paint chips from the old barn door…

The long days and nights riding to Bree started molding into each other so I didn’t have the best idea about how long it has been. I looked up at the stormy night sky dark with clouds filled with rain and thunder that blocked out the light from the stars and the moon. Lightning could be seen in the distance zapping at the ground. I made my horse go faster so we could get to Bree sooner. It was about twenty miles away from where we were. After a loud clap of thunder shook the ground, rain started…

It was a cool November evening on the trail. I was far on the trail beyond my usual boundaries set by my parents. Usually they told me I can ride no more than two miles from home, and some times when it is snowing they say if I can’t see home i’m too far. That day I was too caught up in the gallop my horse wouldn’t stop. My horse, Bogi has always been a good mount and he knew the trail, and he knew it was time to go. “ Something's wrong with you ” I said weary. My heart was now…
