The sun hung lazily in the sky and Alison gave a relieved smile. She looked around and drank the scene around her. How she enjoyed the sound of the birds that sang around and flew gently above them, as they began to venture on to the secret path. The young Amir had seen her in the distance and came running towards her, his face beaming with excitement as he held his arms out ready to embrace his new friend. Alison held her arms out and smiled happily, as they both hugged gently. “You returned,” Amir
The phone rang while Louise was reading the society section of the morning paper, “May I help you?” She asked as she answered the phone. “Louise, this is Tina.” “I’m glad you called I planned to call about lunch. How about meeting me at Ming’s at 11:30?” Louise asked. “Something happened and I need to talk with you,” Tina said. Sensing anger in Tina’s voice, Louise promised to meet her and told Fanny, she would be back later. When Louise pulled into the restaurant’s parking lot and parked near an
I see you walking through town with your precious smile and your face that still shines way too much to be human, I can see your eyes shinning in the sun's light. I just don't understand how you can be so happy after everything that happened. I just can't understand how your eyes can shine so bright after all the hurt that you had to suffer. After all the hurt that we caused to each other. I guess i'm the only one so deeply hurt in the end. I thought that I saw hurt in your eyes the night everything
Baseball is better with you Type: Sonnet When I look at the sun, I see you and I, We're having so much so fun, It's just you and I. We like to play baseball, You and me having the time of our lives, We run like Usain Bolt to catch the ball, We fall and laugh and give each other high fives. The sun is so bright, our body is soaked in sweat, so we go to the shade were there is no light, We grab the hose and spray water and get wet. The ball field is where it's at, So lets throw a ball and swing
Not everyone born to be a wealthy. Not everyone can be cuddled by their parents. Yogi, the ten years old boy, who had a disorder caused by polio when he was a baby lived with her mother in Jakarta. He couldn’t walk properly as other kids. He didn’t have any friends. He never played with other kids. What he did just work to get money. His father had passed away when he was 4 years old. His mother was a housekeeper. She didn’t care enough about Yogi. She also didn’t know if Yogi was working. In her
Thoughtful Wedding Speech by the Groom Ladies and gentlemen: I would like to thank the previous speaker for those sincere words and to the bride's parents for the love that they have both shown me, not only in preparation for today, but from the first moment that we met some two and a half years ago. I dont know who was more surprised that first night when my future wife brought me home without warning, when they were sitting there all ready for bed in their satin bath robes and her dad in
I tried to run but my legs wouldn’t obey. I could only stand there wide-eyed and terrified, like a deer trapped in headlights. For a split second, there was the loudest sound I had ever heard and then blackness and silence. I was certain I was dead. I felt no pain and if I had survived, I would be in agony, right? I tried to make a sound, move a finger, anything really but nothing happened. It wasn’t as if I was paralyzed; it was more like I didn’t have a body to manipulate. I was just a mind submerged
It was a warm humid night outside of my bedroom, there was a light drift traveling through the window. Midnight came around and I had no time to be tired, because it was 2pm in Iraq and my soldier had certain times when he would be able to talk to me. My boyfriend, Derek, is on his last deployment before his honorable discharge. He lost his right leg in an accident 2 years ago, and the generals said that this was his last deployment. I was blissful for that. I sometimes go days without sleep, but
It was late and the house was silent. Tom came home from work late a lot, so the silence was expected. By this time, Marie was in bed and his dinner, the evening newspaper, and the mail were waiting for him on the table. Tom closed the door and walked down the short hall to the kitchen. Everything was set on the table. He quickly looked through the mail and went over to the bin to throw an unwanted advertisement away. Tom noticed a crumpled piece of his wife’s stationary inside. He picked it up and
We've made it. After all of this time, our hard work finally paid off. I got my big break on that American TV show called "The Voice," my first appearance was of me singing Olivia Lufkin's "Winter Sleep;" after that, my father and I were in newspapers and on TV ever since. We even posed for People magazine, together. GQ. Star Magazine. You name it. We are now living what we call "the life," here in my mother's birthplace, the country where her body rests, the United States. But even through all
In ancient times, a huge rock of fire collapsed in what was once called “Earth”. The Earth then separated into three parts in different spaces. These three parts were then named unique names, and a new age of three different kingdoms arrived. But there was a little unfolded truth behind the kingdoms’ powers, and a mess started occurring. All of these troubles will rest in peace if the unknown maiden stood against them. But unluckily, nobody knew where she was hiding, and brave knights from the three
“Just leave him alone”, Zebul angrily reacted. “No”, Steve reacted, “he’s right, I know what my father expects of me. I just don’t know if I can do it.” Before any of them could respond to him suddenly Mr. Jaclac appeared, the dragon training instructor. “Today we are going to do something a little different, today we are going to actually hunt for a dragon.” This was a pleasant surprise for all of them but Steve was a little perplexed on as to how they were going to find the dragon. “I want
GREAT JOB!!!Exclaimed Mr. Roberts as he was passing out the test we had taken the day before. Apparently we all passed. I’m Darwin and I have always been the smartest person in the class, everyone expects me to be the nice guy and the goody-two-shoes, but that is what they wanted so that is what THEY see. I act all nice and good when adults are watching, but truly I am not that kind of person. I wish that people would stop trusting me with so many things just because I’m smart. Mr. Roberts just finished
Anastasia's POV: "How about we go back to my place?" Christian speaks and I nod needing to be gone from this place. He brings the car to life and we head out of this secret society. I gaze out the window endeavoring to forget the whole night, perhaps all of this was a mistake? I shake my head dismissively. This had to happened, I needed to witness this to understand Christian. I just wish he would of have given me a warning of what was inside. I remain quiet and close my eyes for a minute, my sanity
We all have had a time in our lives when everything is going swell. But, what about the times in our lives when everything is broken, shattered, turned to ash. One must decide to fight or flight. I decided to fight my way back to being a whole human and bring peace back to my life. Without the literary device of poetry and lyric, I might as well not be here today. The pieces, “words Hurt”, “You and I”, “Caraphernelia,” “Dead and Buried”, and, “the road not taken”, have had a great impact on my life

Exploring the Beauty of Flagstaff I have always loved visiting Flagstaff for its beautiful atmosphere. Part of which makes Flagstaff so beautiful are the beautiful pine trees that make up the woods. Driving up from Tucson can be such a long drag, especially when all you see is desert. You really know when you finally hit Flagstaff, because the trees along I 17 start to get bigger. They are so beautiful as they stand tall and sway with the light breezes that pass by. The woods show the
I slammed my hand on the alarm clock as it buzzed loudly in the early morning. Ten minutes more, okay? I rolled on my back and covered my eyes with my arm. I just didn’t have the energy to get ready for school. Heaven forbid. I hadn’t finished my essay yet! Plus, we had a quiz in History and Biology. Life is so fantastic. “Kai-ah, wake up. You don’t want to be late for school,” Dad called outside my room. “Coming!” I groaned. I scrambled out of bed and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower
“Baekhyun? Baek?” I opened my eyes to bright, glaring lights, blinding me. Pain seared through my head. I blinked once. Twice. Thrice. I was in a white room. I lay on a comfortable bed. I could hear a beeping sound somewhere above my head. IVs were attached to both of my hands. My left arm was in a cast. A tube ran under my nose. I could hear voices nearby. I was in a hospital. Someone was holding my right hand. I turned my head. “Chanyeol.” He had a bandage on his forehead. Purple bruises were visible
The Good Samaritan “Pretty please, Chris? We just need to find out where she is?” said Karen. She didn’t like to beg, but she wanted to put her mother’s mind at rest too, and that took priority. “I can’t just give out personal information willy-nilly, Karen,” said Chris. “I’d really like to be able to help you.” “You can help, all we want is his mobile number and I know for a fact that June would have put him down as an emergency contact. I promise I won’t tell a soul where I got it from.” “You
