Every time we had a family get together around the bonfire you could count on him to entertain you with stories from his past native american tribe, the Slap-da-hoes. One story that was his most exotic tale is this... “ When the sky people first arrived, they had everything they could ever need. They had enough food to last them a lifetime and they were so happy to have been given a home that they decided…

    Bright blue orbs looked up at the night sky, wonder filling every drop of them. A girl with tear stained cheeks yet a smile on her face. White clouds floated by. A white moon shinning ever so brightly. It was as quiet as could be, and the girl had all of this to herself. How lucky she is to be alive. She completely forgot about the reason she was sitting at the edge of the cliff. She just forgot everything and looked up at the sky. There were what seemed to be millions of stars staring back at…

    Everywhere look today, there is garbage on the ground trees cut down, and polluted water and skies. This is not a new sight for anyone by any means, whether you live in a big city or a small town, you see garbage everywhere. Even as the months change it seems as if the garbage follows. Day by day more is added on top of the existing trash, it covers the ground, and clouds up, and ruins our water and skies. Humans are to blame for the excessive amounts of debris in our world, but, in some places…

    I first saw Emily Carr’s paintings in a book of great Canadian artists within the library of my Ontario public school. In this book was the painting created in 1935 called Scorned as Timber, Beloved as the Sky. This painting depicts a tall tree rejected as being too spindly for good lumber that is left standing in clearcut forest against the feathered shimmering sky. The painting had a unusually quality that depicts a place that was impossible to go, yet to surrounds Canadian’s everyday the…

    The deep blue ocean rising behind the tree line reflecting the same sun I saw that morning. The white fluffy clouds that told of rain floated peacefully through the sky. Along this trip we did not just take in the stunning sights the island had to offer. There were many small bodies of water and waterfalls dotted within the trees, hidden from sight. Jumping into these small pools was extremely refreshing when under the warm sun in the middle of the day. It was not only the pools of water in the…

I detected a hint of warmth that wisped around and hugged me tightly as the sun twirled higher into the cloudless sky. I was meeting up with a couple of friends to explore the seaside.

Since moving to a small town I have been able to enjoy watching the moons and her phases, meteor showers, and seeing where the constellations are in the night sky. William Herschel was a German composer, teacher, and musician residing and…
