She didn’t see them walking down the street towards the house‚ but I could feel them. I knew the familiar scrape of those black feet on the gravel. The giant one (with the strange big squish that sways low) has a jingle on that bag he carries that I can hear from the corner. They came to our door once‚ and I can still smell them if the air blows

    English 101 Compare/Contrast Children’s Pastimes Today and Yesterday Back in the late 1980’s to the early 1990’s when I was a young girl‚ I remember when our generation knew to be in the house when the street lights came on.

    shared with our best friends. In the olden days where computers and modern gadgets are not yet the craze‚ my friends and I enjoy strolling in the streets‚ public parks or plazas.
