Multiple times in the spring, I stayed up all night playing games or talking to friends. To prevent my mother from getting upset, I would pretend I had woken up early to go for a walk. Behind my house lies a large pond. After my walk around the forest, I would sit down on the opposite side of the water to watch the critters perform their morning routines. While the crisp air was refreshing, it was not enough to keep me awake. This resulted in me resting my eyes for a few hours while lying in front of the lake, accompanied by the loving creatures in the woods.
If you were a bird soaring over the pond, you could see the form of a right triangle. The ninety-degree angle being at the bottom right. There are three peninsulas, all on the opposite side from the right angle. From right to left, the first is the longest. It has fewer trees and bushes, and the grass is short. If you were to walk on it after rainfall, your shoes would flood, for It’s the lowest of the three. The second, my personal favorite, is taller than the first but has more bushes and longer grass. If you went to the end, you would have trouble seeing the water. The final peninsula, is diagonal, with so much vegetation it's hard to get to the end. It is the shortest, but most complicated to navigate through. Pinchy trees will somehow always manage to keep you from getting to the border.
If you were me, on that spring morning drifting to sleep, you would have quite a different sensation than the birds gliding over the pond. In front of my normal spot, just before the first peninsula, there are three old pine trees. All spaced out somewhat evenly. Beyond them stands a cliff above the lively water. This is the widest part of the lake. Behind the murky mirror of the sky, leans a thin curtain of trees casting a shadow over the pond. You would feel the grass tickling your ankles, and smell the dew on the leaves. A soft sound of crickets creaking can always be heard, though it is softer in the morning. Ducklings leaving ripples in the water can be seen as they follow their mother. If you manage to stay awake, a family of deer always come prancing in the shallow water. Though, if you rest your eyes for a few seconds they’ll be long gone.
At dusk, the crickets chirps become significantly louder. The sun casts a glow over the trees and their shadow shifts over my house. The muddy reflection of the blue sky changes to shades of pink and orange. The deer race in the forest enfolding the pond. Mosquitos buzz. You can see venus starting to glow in the sky. Frogs come out and start splooshing and splashing, replacing the ripples that the ducks left earlier in the morning. Squirrels, who are happy to have made it through the winter, spring up and down the tolerant trees. Creatures all around are snickering. From all the subtle noise, it seems that all animals love the charming sight of a sunset as well. This scene is so familiar to me that it has become comforting. Surrounded by swaying trees and rustled leaves, I’m happy.
As the sun retires and more stars start to appear the music dies down, but never stops. Now, the pond water is completely still. An owl’s hoot can be heard in the distance. The deer have gone to sleep under the tiny lamps in the sky. The moon glistens in the water. Everything is so still that it seems painted. The crickets have calmed down, but not stopped, as they sing day and night. Yellow glows begin to dance in the night. Though they acquired the name lightning bugs, they prefer clearer skies. The frogs have stopped playing in the water, but continue to ribbit. The scent of life is vague but sweet.
Although staying up late wasn’t the healthiest, and my plan almost always failed because my mother could see me dozing off from her kitchen window, I don’t regret getting familiar with the music of the woods. Now that I’ve watched the stunning scenery morning through night, I know that the forest isn't just trees placed in a random order, It is a city. It is a city full of friends and family. The morning critters like the deer and ducklings, will play in the pond, while the nightlife like fireflies and owls, will sing lullabies until dawn.

Read the quotation from "an occurrence at owl creek bridge." and now he became conscious of a new disturbance. striking through the thought of his dear ones was a sound which he could neither ignore nor understand, a sharp, distinct, metallic percussion like the stroke of a blacksmith’s hammer upon the anvil; it had the same ringing quality. he wondered what it was, and whether immeasurably distant or near by—it seemed both. its recurrence was regular, but as slow as the tolling of a death knell. he awaited each stroke with impatience and—he knew not why—apprehension. the intervals of silence grew progressively longer, the delays became maddening. with their greater infrequency the sounds increased in strength and sharpness. they hurt his ear like the thrust of a knife; he feared he would shriek. what he heard was the ticking of his watch. which best describes the effect of the narration in the excerpt? it suggests that the man being executed feels tranquil and at peace. it suggests that the narrator is sympathetic to the man being executed. it suggests that the plot will become less tense as the story continues. it suggests that the story will become more intense and mysterious.

“heartwork each day is born with a sunrise and ends in a sunset, the same way we open our eyes to see the light, and close them to hear the dark. you have no control over how your story begins or ends. but by now, you should know that all things have an ending. every spark returns to darkness. every sound returns to silence. and every flower returns to sleep with the earth. the journey of the sun and moon is predictable. but yours, is your ultimate art.” ― suzy kassem what does this quote mean to you? and why? i'm not looking for anything in particular, i just wanted to know. : )
