Though the tea field looks normal, yet one step forward tells a different story. Stepping through the entrance the field presented, the ordinary pathway was like a road to an unknown and unexplored location. Looking around and the sudden cold breeze caught my attention with a light swoosh sound as I stroll through a tea field with careful steps. The weaving of alluring green blades of tea leaves softly caress my legs on both sides, as there was a strong and rich smell surrounding me, melting me away, making me loosen up myself and my emotions instantly. The emotions within me just suddenly vanished and were been replaced with nothing but making other senses more alive. The odor from the field invades my nose into my lungs with the smell of freshness and a luxurious aroma, providing a bit of warmth and compassion. The mood around me feels like peace after a cold war with the sun shining down like everything was over. My eyes were scanning around and admiring the view, looking thoughtfully like being appealed to an artwork - nature’s work. Looking down, my sight focused on the leaves that had droplets of water in each of them, keeping them tender and flourishing. The leaves were gleaming …show more content…
The colors of the butterflies were in a variety of colors. Some had vivid yellow blades, while some had sapphire colored aileron with black patterns. They all have an appearance of a pitch dark thorax and abdomen with hidden legs, as its legs were in fact slender-like. All the butterflies beat its wings up and down just like a bird, but yet so sharply it looks like all of them were under a remote control. Some of them alighted on top of the tea leaves, which emphasizes them, makes them stand out like they were ordinary butterflies on the field. They seem to be displayed out their gaily painted silk wings, as it were like falling petals in the breeze, looking so fragile and
Lead author of the Harlem Renaissance and first African-American anthropologist studying his own culture, Zora Neale Hurston is, in many ways, an exceptional writer. Indeed, unlike others such as Robert Wright or Alain Locke, Hurston does not deny the cultural legacy that represents the black folklore, folklore that will influence both the form and substance of his art. As a trained anthropologist, Hurston has been able to capture the American black culture and use it through vernacular oral transcriptions. In Their Eyes Were Watching God, we will analyze the mobilization of language that Hurston uses in order to create a pictorial world. Firstly, we will explore the use of vernacular language.
John Muir’s essay, The Calypso Borealis, and William Wordsworth’s poem, I wandered Lonely as a Cloud, are two wonderfully written works centered towards their love for nature.

“The butterfly is nature’s way of reminding us that there is hope in grief when a caterpillar is no more and the butterfly exists in ultimate freedom and beauty.” These words of Tanya Lord perfectly describe the allusion of butterflies that caught my attention while reading the book O Pioneers! By Whila Cather. There are two main setting in which butterflies appear throughout the novel, after doing research I found many interesting facts of butterflies, and was able to better understand why Cather used this allusion.
I looked out from the passenger side window as we pulled into our parking spot. The trees were beginning to go bare in the frigid October weather, and the ground was covered in their dry, crispy leaves. The four of us were going on a haunted hayride tonight, a popular past-time for season. We clambered out of the car and left our bags behind. It had rained the day before, and it made the ground beneath us soft with mud and trampled leaves.

Tea in China is not only a beverage, I 've come to understand that it is a great deal more than that; it 's an art, a custom, and above all a lifestyle. For over 3000 years humankind has been developing a plant that has incited poems, led to the foundation of trade routes and molded human civilization. With its foundations in China, the tea plant has a rich history, and is encompassed by a fascinating culture. During my travel to Hangzhou, my Chinese friends told me interesting stories of China, and the legend of Shen Nong, the “divine farmer”, who taught the Chinese the art of growing tea leaves and agriculture as a whole. The official origins of tea can be traced down to southwestern China in the Yunnan province, where it was first used
The cool, upland air, flooding through the everlasting branches of the lively tree, as it casts a vague shadow onto the grasses ' fine green. Fresh sunlight penetrates through the branches of the tree, illuminating perfect spheres of water upon its green wands. My numb and almost transparent feet are blanketed by the sweetness of the scene, as the sunlight paints my lips red, my hair ebony, and my eyes honey-like. The noon sunlight acts as a HD camera, telling no lies, in the world in which shadows of truth are the harshest, revealing every flaw in the sight, like a toddler carrying his very first camera, taking pictures of whatever he sees. My head looks down at the sight of my cold and lifeless feet, before making its way up to the reaching arms of an infatuating tree, glowing brightly virescent at the edges of the trunk, inviting a soothing, tingling sensation to my soul.
