Road accidents

the purpose of this paper, I chose the short story “The Worn Path” by Eudora Welty and the poem “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost. Out of all the literature covered in class, these two pieces were the two I not only enjoyed the most but found myself relating to the most as well. The theme for “The Worn Path” is one that I developed being a mother for over 20 years, and the theme for “The Road Not Taken” encompasses the many different choices I have made in my life that have led me to be on…

Sometimes you have to do bad things, to get something good out of it. Do you think that is right? In the book “Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry” by: Mildred D. Taylor, Papa had to make a life or death decision, which put him in danger. The life or death situation that Papa made was to start a fire so he could save T.J., Mr.Morrison, and his family. Papa started the fire by setting the cotton field on fire. I agree with Papa starting the fire because if he wouldn’t have started the fire the mob of…

I up to the red light. Stop before the line. To my side, gas stations, a couple restaurants, and happy people in a happy community. The delight of a small town feeling where everybody knows everybody. It makes life feel so simple and sweet. I heard a rumor about low income houses being put up in Damascus, but I didn't believe it was going to happen. A few weeks ago I noticed that there was some construction going on behind the post office. In my head, I thought wow this cannot be right. Why is…

Traveling through the Dark is a poem which makes the narrator consider the road of life and mortality. The poem is written in a very straightforward way. It shows that sometimes you have to make decisions by yourself, based on your moral qualities and what you believe. The author writes the poem so that the reader can relate to the narrator in the story. He allows the reader to put themselves in the narrator's shoes and ask themselves what they would do in a situation in which they could choose…

On the bus on the way to out school trip destination most of us had fallen asleep. We are heading to some old castle to stay in and role play as if we were living in the Victorian era. I just hope I get to be Royalty and not a maid. Around another two hours the bus drove up a dirt track, by this stage it was pitch black the only thing lighting the way was the headlights of the bus, the stars and moon. The whole journey here I had taken pictures of the scenery and breath-taking views.…

Squinting into the mid morning sunlight, Ashleigh saw the tangle of knots that made up the Pioneers Ropes Course at Spring Lake Camp, the course that she was expected to have completed by...today. It sure does look high, she thought, and they were, that is, if you considered fifty feet in the air to be high. No one’s fell...yet. “Ashleigh! Ashleigh, where are you?” Tom, Ashleigh’s ropes counselor called. “It’s your turn!” Ohh great, Ashleigh thought. “I’m coming, Tom! I’m right…

while he waits for her to arrive. Leaning his body against the gate he blows out a cloud of smoke thinking about her; since he was destined to have her. Taking another hit off his joint, he looks down the dark path to see her walking up the moon lit road. She was nervous, so she giggles" Pass that shit" holding her hand out while twirling her hips. Jamie smirks before handing the joint over to her "If it ain't green it ain't us" he repiled as he watches her lean against the gate next to…

Once there were three kids on a mission to find something. Two boys and one girl, Stanley, Zero, and the one girl, Lucy. All sent to camp Green Lake for “steeling jewelry”. Although all of them know that they didn’t do anything or steel anything. After only a few long months in Camp Green Lake they were all ready to run away. Even though it was in the middle of a blazing hot dessert filled with Yellow Spotted Lizards that would bite you with their poisonous venom. It was very scary out there but…

Creeping in the Shadows In Boca Raton, Florida it seems as if the scorching sun is always beating down on the ebony tarmac, the trees swaying with a small breeze, the sky crystal blue, it is a constant summer no matter the season. I see a small boy come into the picture. He is young, wearing a long sleeve St.Andrew’s shirt, Jeans and loafers. His hair is jet black and he has tan skin. A small boy follows behind him. The boys run everywhere. They ran to the mailbox, ran down the street, ran from…
