Grass

Grass under my stomach reminded me of our yard in Lousiana. Cool breezes sending chills up my back, while I`m laying on the trampoline. All I see is clouds of grey, the sky is upset. My friends laying beside me trying yo find images in the darkness of the sky. A field of a corn a few doors down. The smell of my neighbors jumblaya and apple barb pie fills the air. We are having dinner with them tonight. Today the flower`s crest the ground and tomorrrow they will be gone. We have a regular metal…

To create a structured story, Silpperjack used the weather to portray the time of day relevant to the story. To begin with, in Coal Oil, Crayons and Schoolbooks Silpperjack expresses the weather at the beginning of the day to have the following characteristics, “…cold, damp air.. white mist all around me.” (Slipperjack 27). When one awakes in the morning, the air does feel denser and colder. Slipperjack illustrates the weather in such to generate a morning feel because it is the beginning of…

Thomas and Joe: The Landscapers Thomas Gainsborough and Joe Rader Roberts are not your typical landscapers. In fact, the two are not the manual laborers who clean and fix up your lawn and gardens. Both men are artists who have remarkable works of landscape art. The difference between the two is that they were born nearly two centuries apart, so one can most likely see a huge setting and story difference in the works of art. I honestly could not have picked a better combination to compare and…

My sister and I fought about something stupid, exactly how we always did, but somehow this argument turned into something more, and we ended up not talking for the rest of the week. She hated me, I knew, and growing up I was proud of the sibling rivalry we had, but these days, I was tired of it. The arguing, the yelling, even the eyerolls I gave her sometimes; it was just something I didn’t want anymore. I’m not even sure how the drift between us happened, but there was a continent the size of…

the battle positions at the manassas were very important for both sides so your platoon wouldn't get bombarded with cannons or ambushed, and or being killed in your sleep (civil war) The long tall grass at the battle field was very important to groups of men who could crawl thru the long thick grass to ambush the arterially positions and other little outpost along the battlefield. There was also wooded areas were huge in the battles at the manassas so the advancing troops would have cover from…

thick grassy plains and few dispersed trees that do not have a high enough tree density to form a closed canopy. Consequently, this allows for sunlight to reach the ground, supporting a thick and healthy layer of plantlife consisting primarily of grass. It is also characterized by its seasonal availability in water as a large majority of its rainfall is subject to one season. Climate: The central african savanna receives a wet-dry tropical climate, with one distinct wet season during the…

Values like the cycle of life, living a happy worry free life, the value of friends, and the reasonability of being a king. Let's start at the value of the cycle of life. In the movie it goes something like this, when you die you body becomes the grass. That grass feeds the herdorvies. Then the herdorvies are eaten by the carnorvies. Last but not least the carnorvies die and the cycle repeats all over again. The next value in living a happy worry free life. What is the point if you don’t have…

something caught my eye. The winking grin of the flask stared at me, begging to be drunk. Resistance is futile. It is my final connection with her, the only way to relive the joy I once had. ... The starry sky was jagged and disconnected from the grass, a sharp difference from the last time. Stars bled from the sky like a thousand pale golden tears. Once again I could feel the life leave from my legs and I found myself moving without sensation. This time the sensation was remarkably…

feed. The two forms of animal feed that are used in the process of producing beef are corn and grain. Most people would like to believe that cows are grass fed or allowed to graze freely among acres of land, but unfortunately, that is not the case. Though it does sound quaint to allow all of the cows to be fed its natural source of food, free range/ grass fed cattle causes more environmental harm than good. Free grazing of cows tends to cause over-grazing, which is the process of constant eating…

Red men knew that they cannot win white because in the story Seattle said that "His people are many. They are like the grass that cover vast prairies. My people are few. They resemble the scattering trees of a storm swept plain". Page (309) So in here Seattle uses personification by using grass and trees and represented white and red indians. Whites were so many just like grass. Before white came to the land, red Indians use to living in the land, peacefully. They live by the dreams of their…
