Rainy Day
Go Away, Rainy Day It always seems like that one day that is supposed to go perfectly, mother nature comes and washes it all away. Just when your day looks bright the rain turns the sky like night. In the beginning its not so bad, the spotty drizzles and soft mists give you hope that its just a small wave. But as each cloud expands like rising dough you start to lose a little more hope that your ruined plans wont cause woe. You face the fact that you have to alter your plans but “this little bit of rain” won’t stop you. As you begin to notice that old bathed dog smell, you are realizing your day might be over when it hasn't even started. Eventually the last inch of sun gets covered and your enthusiasm settles. Each drop brings you down more and more, dog piling onto your clothes. The damper and heavier your shirt gets the more depressing your mood becomes. Within every second of that constant water bashing rigorously your hatred for the day builds. After awhile your hope grows narrow. The rain pushes you down like a middle school bully. But as you sit in sorrow, you pay attention to it less and less. Without you noticing, the constant bashing becomes faint. The chirps of the birds overpower that distant bashing. As the sun slithers a glare into your room, you dash to the window, eyes widened with purpose and hope. In those first steps outside you smell a breeze of life and happiness. All hope has returned. The day seems young as if that vigorous burst of denial never happened. The day is born again and the only traces of that dreadful mishap are the beautiful rainbows it leaves. So once the gruesome rain goes away, the sun will brighten up this terrible

    We were all sucked dry from the sun that day with zero energy left, we scavenged what we could and we still ate better than we could have at any local dinner. The day was still long and was only going to get hotter and longer even as the day came to a close. There was more things to do around the land than there was at any theme park. So as we all sat around and waited for something to do you could tell that everyone was thinking the same thing as sweat poured down all of our faces. The cold spring fed creek was the only thing that was going through my mind and I knew that was the only thing going through anyone else’s. We walked down to the creek as there was no other way that you could reach it, and as we got closer and closer you could hear the light eco of the fifteen foot waterfall coming off of the trees. The only thing I was looking for was the spit of the water flowing up through the large oak and misquote tree branches. You knew when everyone saw the water, you could see the sight of the crystal clear water shining off of everyones eyes and you could tell that there was a sudden sign of relief that came upon everyone after the long walk through the large misquote trees avoiding as many thorns and cactuses as they possibly could, being careful as could be you weren't going to miss all of them. And there was no better feeling than soaking your wounds in that…

    The sun is shining and birds are singing beautiful melodies; days are beautiful. The nature does not know what is happening to us (DeWitte). Women, men, kids, cannot escape; no one knows what it is or when it started, and we sure do not know how long is going to last; all we know is today we wake up and we are alive. Meanwhile, I am here, afraid to lose my truly love, my daughter.…

    Two men died every mile of track of the Canadian Pacific Railway. The majority of those workers were Chinese. The Chinese people, more specifically the Cantonese, left their motherland of China in the 1800’s to immigrate to Canada. Canada was a fairly new country at the time and boasted plenty of opportunities. The Cantonese still, to this very day, continue to immigrate to Canada.…

    This film touched my heart deeply, and because of that my reflection is that when you bring the sun inside, no matter if it’s raining. Maybe every day may not be good but there's always something good every day. Throughout our lives we will find golden ages, moments of full sun others with clouds and storms. But never forget that you have within you everything you need to…

    Trying to go to school the next day. Standing in the shower thinking maybe if I dont get out I wouldn't have to start my day and move on with it all. But as the water turns to a shivering cold I realize it’s all too real. Pushing through the first five periods of the day, the last three seemed as too much. Feeling as if I will never be able to be happy again. All these gloomy days crafted me into who I am today. This whole experience making me grow up just a little bit faster, and a little more mature and understanding seeming as I already live the life as an adult, but only being a…

    TODAY WAS NOT a normal day for walking home. The clouds that shined over the town made me slightly put off by the idea of Santa Rosa for a corn dog. Not like they had good corn dogs, but I was hungry and carried a heavy pocket full of sunshine. I guess I was meant to stop at a random road today, because as I stood staring up at the clouds (and finally knowing what Louis was doing all that time when she was daydreaming), I wasn't the only one who ditched school. There was another figure that came from the same direction that I had come from, stomping her way down the street and holding a look that was deadly, carrying a knapsack too big for her arms.…

    In the midst of a gentle rain while these thoughts prevailed, I was suddenly sensible of such sweet and beneficent society in Nature, in the very pattering of the drops, and in every sound and sight around my house, an infinite and unaccountable friendliness all at once like an atmosphere sustaining me, as made the fancied…

    Today is one of those rare days in which it is raining and I’m sitting on the windowsill waiting for a sign. Something that says ‘move on’. There is still a part of me that hopes every day that you're alive and I haven't found you yet. I will have searched the far corners of the earth before I let myself believe you dead. I dream of you every night, then wake with the bitter taste of regret fresh in my mouth. You abandoned me. You have marooned me on this earth, and it is dark without your light by my side. All that fills my mind is when you were still beside me. I distinctly recall one summer when we were not quite children anymore and still too young to be adults. It was raining so hard that the streets were flooded for the first time in eighty years, and you had insisted on escaping to the desert.…

    Everything was silent at first, as are most moment’s right before a major storm. People were roaming around, minding their own business and going about their days like nothing was wrong. It was quite clear most were trying to rush to get everything accomplished before the downpour, but no one knew how soon it would happen. Suddenly, as young eyes searched around the area for a treat for being a good boy during the trip, the wind suddenly picked up. Papers and leaves blew about, some flying in front of his face. This caused him to let go of the hand he was holding onto so he could rub at his eyes. He heard a voice, but the wind was too loud for him to hear over.…

    In the poem, “There Will Come Soft Rains”, by Sara Teasdale, an initial interpretation may be based on the knowledge that it fits into the post-apocalyptic/dystopian genre. To truly appreciate and understand a literary work, one must attempt to interpret it in many different ways. As a secondary interpretation, one may understand the poem to be portraying the message that humanity plays an extensive unnecessary role in the survival and vitality which nature upholds on earth.…

    Whose Reality

    Its 9pm on a Sunday and I can feel the first of the rain as its droplets catch on my outstretched palms. There’s something very humbling about the rain. It’s one of nature’s great forces, and completely escapes our control. When the rain comes, it doesn’t account for petty human drama, politics and cultural divisions. I ponder this thought as I round the bend and turn down the next street. The rain is a reminder that above all else, we are at the whim of mother nature. Beyond our constructed realities and perception of modern society lies a force mar more powerful than humanity. This is a somewhat overwhelming thought, and instantly I long for togetherness and company, but I must remind myself that I am a stranger here. Through the windows of the houses lining this street, people go about their lives to the sound of the rain on their rooftops. Perhaps some of them are experiencing similar thoughts to my own? Raindrops slide down my forehead and drip from my brow onto my eyelids- the water blurs my vision. In this dreamlike state, I wander forwards, the lights around me shifting, darting and sliding in the darkness. At this bizarre moment in time I feel a sudden and uncontainable urge to peer through the windows of the houses that surround me, to catch an insight into the lives of these strangers. Through each window lies a different truth, and I am suddenly all too eager to explore these realities- lives that occur in spite of the rain.…

    The shrieking sound of my bed pierced my ears as I rolled over to the “colder” side. Peeking through my bedroom window, was a ray of the rising sun who softly kissed my face as I wistfully arose from my slumber. A burst of summer breeze blew over my body stretching out my bones as it fell upon my skin. I sit up on my rusted bunk and take in a deep breath, as I exhaled, I tell myself that I’m releasing all of the negativity in my body. It’s my therapy.…

    I crouch down and pick up my large oversized black and white bag and head for the door. I look down at my dogs and their black twinkling eyes not knowing what’s to come. I fall down on to the cold white tiles of the kitchen floor and give them one last final tight hug goodbye with tears streaming down my face not wanting to let go knowing that I will never see them again. I finally release them, stand up and walk out of the house not wanting to look back. The hot muggy air hits me as I walk to the car. I get in and tears are running unchecked down my face onto my lips, being able to taste the warm…

    As I sit outside my porch gleaming at the clear blue sky, the sun peeking through the clouds down on my face. I take a long breath, taking in the morning breeze and letting it out. Today will be different, it will be a new beginning. I hear the birds chirping and the sun has risen. It's time. I run back inside my house grab the keys and head straight to the front door. I take a deep breath again telling the voices in my head that today will be different. I stroll down the road as I rehash what this day was one year ago. A deadly disaster, a heart throbbing story that I never want to be reminded of. I ambled past a group of people down the street, I hear their words turning into whispers and their ferocious eyes looking at me. The whispers are…
