Rural Area Family Moved
298 words
When I was a child, I spent the most memorable
years in a rural area near the beach. It embodies
the best of my ten years life. However, when I was
ten, my family moved to the city, and everything
around me changed dramatically. To me, a good life
does not have to be complex. I can still remember
the joy inside the little cottage we had. I used
to wake up before dawn, and wake up my cousins. We
would climb over hills to see the sun rising which
was truly a sublime scene. We would lay on the
gras...

Toni Morrison Dream Deferred
1,130 words
What happens to a dream deferred? Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun? Or fester like a sore-
And then run? Does it stink like rotten meat? Or
crust and sugar over- like a syrupy sweet? Maybe
it just sags like a heavy load. Or does it
explode? While Langhston Hughes authors this poem,
A Dream Deferred, it can easily be interpreted as
Toni Morrison's description of Nel and her life of
sorrow and dissatisfaction. Sula and Nel, the
protagonists in Toni Morrison's Sula, are each the
only daughte...

Pull Out His Eyes Coming Down Along The Road Stephen

In the Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man,
James Joyce creates a deeply personal and
emotional portrait to every man. Joyce's main
character, Stephen Dedalus, encounters universal
feelings of detachment, guilt, and awakening.
Rather than stepping back and remembering the
characteristics of infancy and childhood from and
adult perspective, Joyce uses the language the
infant was enveloped in. Joyce also uses baby
Stephens viewpoint to reproduce features of
infancy. In Joyce's first chapter, cru...

Back And Forth Pine Trees
1,119 words
As a child, on any hot, sunny summer day there was
always a good chance that my family and I would be
going swimming. Going to our cousins? house to
swim in their pond were exciting times. We parked
in their driveway and walked through the very tall
pine trees that went up as far as the eye could
see and as far down. The trees seemed like an
entrance into another world. If I looked up, I
barely saw the tips of the trees swaying back and
forth by a light breeze. I faintly smelled the
light scent ...

Living on Oak Road When I think of the sounds,
sights, and smells of my house on Oak Road I get
homesick. It makes me want to go back to the
familiar area. My family and I moved here when I
was just one year old. It was a small country town
with only one store on the corner with clean air
and very few cars on the road. We never had any
worries as we walked to the corner store. The town
always seemed very quiet and undisturbed. As times

Man Make Money

The writer that I chose is Derek Walcott. The
reason that I chose him was because we had never
read his poetry in class and we did not cover many
black poets in class. After reading much of his
poetry I feel that Walcott and me have not only a
lot in common but at times the same feelings
toward are heritage. Walcott descended from a
white grandmother and a black grandmother on both
the paternal and maternal sides, he? s a living
example of divided heritage between two worlds.

its origins lost in ancient times. Why, when and
how people first started to prepare them may never
be known, but archeological findings, early

Emily Grierson Miss Emily

Queen Emily Emily Grierson was an enigma in her
town. No one truly knew who she was or what she
did during her life on Earth. The townsfolk were
obsessed with her every move, which were few and
far between. She lived a peaceful, yet somewhat
tortured life inside her dark house, away from the
stresses and problems of everyday life. It was
almost as if she had the town hypnotized to think
she was a Queen. She did not have to pay taxes,
she did not speak to others, and she always got
her way. It wa...

Evil Inside Us Land of the free, and home of the

bigotry ended with the civil rights movement of
the 1960 s, it merely sublimated itself into our
