cloud of darkness was in my head and covering my eyes. Dribbling a ball up and down a court in 100 degree weather can cause a little bit of dizziness. Except the third time I fell‚ my head did not experience the darkness; my whole body did. It was as though someone let a cage of butterflies out in my stomach‚ but not the kind you get looking at your first love. Laying on the black tar scorching in the sun‚ I make an attempt to get up. One leg moved and the other was distorted. My knee had melted away

the first thing that cried out of my mother’s mouth as the back entryway swung open. The chipped wood on the door‚ the scattered coins‚ the front door wide open‚ and the red purse turned upside down had the entire family in shock. This would be a Thanksgiving Day the whole family would never forget. It would likewise be my first phone call to the police. Slowly the phone rang and the officer said‚ “911 what is your emergency?” I answered‚ saying‚ “Help‚ help my house has been robbed”‚ much to

My children are playing with their toy trucks and probably fighting over who gets to play with the big yellow cement truck.

The ice was at least a foot thick by this time of year according to the people in town more than safe enough for the trip out on the lake. I gassed up my ATV and strapped down all my gear and headed out to my shanty. Trying to navigate in these conditions is very treacherous having only a general idea on the whereabouts of my shanty is would be difficult. Finally‚ the weather

With these things in mind‚ on a rain Saturday afternoon two of my friends accompanied me to the casual dining restaurant‚ Applebee’s.

I sit up drowsily in bed; the sun is shining through the window‚ making little patterns of light on my sheets. I rise‚ feeling the coolness of the wood floor against my feet as they touch the ground. I walk to the closet and grab my faded old jeans; I slip them on‚ buttoning the snap in one fluid movement. I pull open the top drawer

Eyes Left Burning and Heart Still Searching My eyes start to tingle and burn as they become covered by a blanket of smoke as I stare into the bright glow of a 4th of July bonfire. I’m relaxed and comfortable as I reclined back in my canvas lawn chair. With one hand‚ I loosely hold a dewy can of beer‚ and my other hand is tucked tightly under my knee to keep from the cool air. I close my eyes tightly trying to rid of the burning from letting myself stare far to long into the flames. They seem to

These buildings posses the most beautiful architecture I have ever seen in my lifetime. I think to myself‚ there are so many buildings here; I find it hard to believe that man is capable of putting them up. The buildings look like they have plunged from GOD’s hand and landed at one spot. New York City is basically a crowded

An Athlete’s Home Home is where the heart is. If this is true then‚ my heart belongs to a special place. Not just any place‚ but a place where the chalk line connects the grass to the dirt‚ where three bases signify my safety‚ and a green fence is my brick wall. When I pull around the corner my view fist goes to the baseball field not the softball field‚ but that’s what makes it so unique and special in its own way. It’s sort of like a home‚ with a fence for a wall and trees for the roof. Different
