PASSED THE DAY WITH THE SUN
I saw the sun’s first rays
Tiptoe over the trees at dawn of this day
And now it is already time for them to go.
I watched them all day. They had many moods.
Some were good, some bad, but each was very splendid.
Yes, even when rays bounced from pieces of metal or glass
In the sand by the roadside
Or, came shooting down at various angles
And seemed to denote a mood of anger or discontent
As they cut sharply through leaves
And made fish swim deeper under water
When they came down full force
On the back of the farmer’s neck
Each of these things telling me
The sun was furious about something
Even then, there was a beauty, a goodness
It’s kind of like the beautiful Irish lady
With her splendid temper
She will get magnificently

Then she, alone, shall keep vigilance against Bane’s veil until the break of dawning next. It is Love that makes the perpetual pendulum penetrate, suddenly stop, stand still so strangely as each voluptuous volume vibrates and every second is a delectable eternity. For me, anyway.
And, sometimes I do not see her, but I can sense her presence through every pore as though she is all around me and I cannot help being her. When she speaks to me (Oh! How she speaks to me!) it seems like I’m listening to my heart throb, my very own breath of life. I cannot help loving her, for, she is Love. For me, anyway. 19
OF FRIENDS AND LOVERS
It’s not such a secret place
Your land of tears
I’ve strolled its winding walks
Forlorned for many years
Please, do not heave and each place go
With heavy sighs
Don’t look ahead at

And, if I could yell loudly enough from the top of the highest mountain and tell all about the depth and strength and greatness of my love for you, my voice would break out from the bounds of this earth and fill the whole universe with shouts of joy, and happiness. I cannot tell you how very much I love you, how much you give to me, how much I want to give to you; there are no words that can express these things, so, my Dearest, my Darling, if you will allow me to, I will gladly spend each sweet moment of my life with you, showing you in every way I can, how much I love my life, because of you, my wife. 45

The following essay is a social analysis of the character of Chris Guthrie in Sunset Song written by Lewis Grassic Gibbon. Chris Guthrie is a character who possesses many other admirable qualities alongside her independent thoughtfulness; including her confidence, resilience, sensitivity and sexuality to name but a few. The main and recurring theme throughout this novel is that of change, and Gibbon cleverly depicts this theme through the eyes of the character Chris Guthrie. Gibbon uses advanced symbolism to portray these qualities to the reader and to explain the character's development process from childhood to adulthood. In Sunset Song, Chris Guthrie is introduced as a fifteen year old Scottish peasant girl living in the small Scottish
The second half of The Bluest Eye, “Spring” and “Summer,” are the heaviest, most intense sections of them all. Toni Morrison hard-hitting describes the terrible events that unravel during this time. The disgustingly real descriptions show us the true horror of abuse, rape, and violence and the aftermath of all of it. After reading this book, the song “Purple Summer,” by Duncan Sheik instantly came to mind.
I watched as the big fiery ball climbed above everything else. It shot out orangish-red rays from all direction and made the town brighter. As lovely as the morning was I knew that today wouldn't be horrible. I could only watch from down here, the beautiful shining star.
The poem, At Mornington was written by Australian poet, Gwen Harwood. It was published in 1975 under her own name. At Mornington is about a woman reminiscing about her past when she is with her friend. There are many themes explored in this poem including memory, death and time passing.
“It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow
He knew that it was noon, because the walls of the maze cast shallow shadows during this time. For a brief moment Icarus admired the sun and the warmth it extended over his body. He was mesmerized by its beauty. Soon he would be flying close enough to touch it.
In the movie, “Bright Star” directed and written by Jane Campion, the writer includes the poem, “Bright star, would I were stedfast as thou art” by John Keats, to further emphasize the romanticism of the poem. The movie portrays the poem author, John Keats falling in love with the neighboring girl, Fanny Brawne. Nonetheless, Keats is a poet with no real success and has no money, so their future together is limited and disdained. With the hopes of becoming officially engages and getting married, Keats sets out to finish his latest poetry novel. However, during his trip Keats becomes incredibly ill, tuberculosis, he is recommended to go Italy in hopes of getting better, but tragically dies.
New Beginnings The poems “Prayer at Sunrise” by James Weldon Johnson, and “The Jewish Year” by Jessie E. Sampter both present themes that say having faith in God to provide new beginnings in your life. Conversely, the poem “The Jewish Year” by Jessie E. Sampter has a more solemn or sad but determined tone, while “Prayer at Sunrise” by James Weldon Johnson is more uplifting. I think these tones resonate from the authors past. Both authors had struggles in the beginnings of their lives but did not let that hold them back.
When writers add in seemingly random details such as capitalizations and dashes, one should pay attention. Emily Dickenson’s “There’s a certain Slant of light” is simply about light passing over the landscape, but no poem is only about what it seems. Dickenson uses caesura, juxtaposition, personification, and other literary devices to convey a dark, negative tone about the light throughout the poem.
She is blinded by love that even his darkest actions are always melting her away. A sign of her love for him, she once said “My bounty is as boundless as the sea, My love as deep; the more I give to thee, The more I have, for both are infinite” (2.2,133-135) This shows that her love for him is beyond. Also, another line she says that mentions her love is “To lure this tassel-gentle back again! Bondage is hoarse and may not speak aloud;”(2.2, 162-163)
In her description of the inception of the discussed love, Blanche describes it “like you suddenly turned a blinding light on something that had always been half in shadow” (114). This imagery introduces the juxtaposition of the love. It is described as ‘light’, suggesting is alleviated a personal darkness for Blanche. However, it is also ‘blinding’ and too overwhelming to be truly enjoyed. The beginning of the love, and the overall concept of it, are incredibly appealing to Blanche and they make her happy.
By day I pass under a sun-flooded sky And it is your sky And that anxious, wakeful
Birds were chirping; flowers swaying in the wind. Warm rays of light hit my face; I stirred awake rubbing the dust out of my eyes. We packed our stuff for the final event of this holiday at the theme park. Everything seemed fine. I got onto the rollercoaster with my family to have some extreme fun.
