With the Snow crunching under his feet, Swiftly walking towards the wooden tavern. As the door swings open he rushes towards the fire to warm up.

one that kept the team together when we got down. We all were going to miss her next year. She knew she wanted to win, she knew she had to keep the rest of us positive, and she knew she had to do her job as a catcher. Grace gets ready to pitch, she swings her arm around, she watches the ball go by the batter. The umpire yells, “STRIKE!” We all get a little bit excited but know we have to not show too much because this is just the first inning of the game. She goes on to strike that batter out.…
I'll never forget the smell of the fresh cut grass and the beautiful color of the greens of when my dad first took me to the Homestead driving range in second grade. It helped me forget about all the things that were happening in my life at that moment. This was the first time I ever went golfing and I fell in love with it. This is what has made me who I am today. In second grade i was diagnosed with a blood disorder called ITP (Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura). Before I was diagnosed i used…

I walked to the practice green in order to roll a few practice putts, make a few short chip shots, go through a quick stretching routine, and take a multitude of practice swings. Just like any other round, the thought of shooting par, playing to the level that the course was designed for, had crossed my mind. I have played the course probably over a hundred times.

You soared halfway around the world but you burned up in the atmosphere to send you spiraling down below. You landed somewhere far from here with no one else around, I tried to catch you falling down and i’m looking for you now. He told you “Swing for the fences, son” a conversation you took nothing from. So let us raise a glass to you, let us celebrate everything you’ve done. Keep putting off of knowing where you’re from. You can catch up with yourself if you run. Statement of Intent:…
I am feeling as if my chest has been filled with cold, and a massive block weighing me down. Now let me tell you about my dream, I seen Aria… her hands were grasping the metal chains of a park swing, and flying high, the swing set squeaking as she gradually increased extensively, and elevated, surpassing the environment below her. A slight shriek departed, and I heard her beautiful laugh as she seemed so much happier. Time heals all wounds, so I’m learning…
never the answer. Perhaps if Romeo would have tried to control himself Juliet would not have stabbed herself, and no one would have died. Age determaines our decision making.
