The Raindrops

We have arrived back and I am sitting inside our little old tent listening to the gentle patter of the raindrops on the canvas. It began raining here this morning and it is still at it. No drill today, so I will have time to write a letter or two. Earlier today the weather was terrible as it is cold and damp. All of us soldiers were in the trenches and freezing to death. My best mate Fredrick is now suffering from trench foot due to his foot being exposed to extreme amounts of unsanitary, and…

yet). His life had been confounded by the “don’t ask, don’t tell” ideology of his mother; thus leaving James in the shadows when it came to being learned of who his mother and family truly were. Aubrey’s “words sliced through [James’] memory like raindrop,” (McBride 228). Aubrey spoke with James about the truth of the Shilsky family describing them as “kind of a tragedy,” (McBride 225)…

The world needs something. In all summer in a day Ray Bradbury's characters want the joy from the sun. They haven't been up and playful as usual. As the sun sets on Venus with raindrops falling all the characters wish for a day with sun and heat. Through the story bradbury uses feelings and emotion to show what it's like without the sun. In the beginning the author uses Margot's speech to show how mad the kids can get when she explains the sun. She is from earth and the kids get senselessly mad…

Barbara Capitelli was shaking, not noticeably, but shaking inside for her feelings were exceptionally strong and vivid. She wanted to get away from Barbara and the only way she could at this moment was to think of someone else’s words of wisdom. “The whisper of solemn finality, the mention of death of a loved one is a deep moment of regret that takes control and squeezes you till the tiny drops of remorse have no place to hide. It is that moment of reflection when you may look back and think…

He brought the raindrop shaped cloud into his palace and started to slowly take the cloud apart piece by piece. It took about an hour til Zeus got to the end and then he noticed a strange human figure looking up at him. He had a very happy look on his face, because of the…

breeze wind blew over my face as I lay on the ground. I unintentionally fell asleep. A forbearance sound traveling through my ears and goes into my brain. “Wake up! Wake up!”, my friends calling “ It’s raining!" I felt the raindrops like needles in the sky. As the raindrops run through my eyes, i was awake. Unexpectedly, the rains fall harder and harder. The amount of rain looks like it is going to…

I awoke with a gasp; I was disoriented. My breaths were frantic and sporadic. I examined the room in which I had awoken in. I rest my eyes upon a frail and sickly looking man who had a expression on his face of utter horror. The man frantically left room; I attempted to go after him, but quickly I fell to the ground. My body felt alien to me. I examined my body to find a thin, pale skin that covered my grotesque body. My veins and arteries were visible through my skin. The skin was so tight my…

There are small particles in the air called aerosols. They are found in fog and smoke. These particles become larger in size if two processes occur. The first process is water vapor accumulating onto a particle. The next process is cool, rising air supporting the particle. Once the aerosol particles are large enough, they become cloud droplets that will have a different mechanism of growing. Cloud droplets grow differently because they are larger in size. Instead, they grow by a new process…

In the song “The Sound of Silence” by Paul Simon the diction is conveyed very well in which the writer is trying to help us to imagine what is happening in the dream. In an article entitled “Song Analysis: Sound of Silence” by Wizzler the author states that “In the 1960s, the middle and upper class majority held the expectation that no one should disturb the silence or voice their controversial opinions”. For example, the phrase “Silence” is used at the end of every stanza to help convey the…
