The Courage Of Cranes Analysis
The fresh approach to the writing in cranes war, was different because he was dealing with the hardships of war and also dealing with the romance. From a position in the rear of the grove, a battery was throwing shells over it. The flash of the guns started the youth at first. He thought they were aimed directly at him. Through the trees, he watched the black figures of the gunners as they worked swiftly and intently. Their labor seemed a complicated thing. He wondered how they could remember its formula in the midst of confusion.
As he listened to the din from the hillside to a deep pulsating thunder that came from far to the left, and to the lesser clamors which came from many directions, it occurred to him that they were fighting, too, …show more content…
over there, and over there, and over there. Heretofore he had supposed that all the battle was directly under his nose.
The battle flag in the distance jerked about madly. It seemed to be struggling to free itself from an agony. The billowing smoke was filled with horizontal flashes. Men rushing swiftly emerged from it. They grew in numbers until it was seen that the whole command was fleeing. The flag suddenly sank down as if dying. Its motion as it fell was a gesture of despair. Wild yells came from behind the walls of smoke. A sketch in gray and red dissolved into a mob like the body of men who galloped like wild horses.

When I was biking at Cades Cove I felt all kinds of emotions like scared, happy, joyful and confused.
When I would bike up a hill I was worrying bout if my brakes would fail, or if my chain would pop off. When I would go down I was wondering if there were any cars in the way so that I would be safe, but I was also hoping there were none so I could just cruise down the hill to feel like I'm flying with the wind. I am always working on my bike and trying to tune it up or fix it. Always having new brakes tightening the gear system, greasing the handle bars and the gear shifts, and putting on a new chain. Every time I go to cades cove I try to beat my time on finishing. So far I have beat my time once and that was the first time I actually biked the entire 11 mile loop. Each time I bike the loop I feel energized and have adrenaline rushing through my veins, I feel like it could never end, but eventually, it ends. When I go biking I feel like I could do anything but also I like to feel free and alone, its always fun to just go biking and see nature at its finest even if there are cars following you and trying to make you go faster even though you're on a bike and they have an engine, I have to actually move my legs unlike you from switching pedals so you don't have to pay for insurance on hitting some person biking because you can't be
patient.
