    Once a woman fell from the sky. The woman who fell from the sky was neither murderer nor a saint. She was rather ordinary‚ though beautiful in her walk‚ like one who has experienced freedom from earth’s gravity. When I see her I think of an antelope grazing the alpine meadows in mountains whose names are as ancient as the sound that created the first world. Saint Coincidence thought he recognized her as she began falling toward him from the sky in a slow spin‚ like the spiral of events marking an

    a heavy head and beak. Even the smallest eagles‚ like the booted eagle (Aquila pennata) (which is comparable in size to a common buzzard (Buteo buteo) or red-tailed hawk (B. jamaicensis))‚ have relatively longer and more evenly broad wings‚ and more direct‚ faster flight – despite the reduced size of aerodynamic feathers. Most eagles are larger than any other raptors apart from some vultures. The smallest species of eagle is the South Nicobar serpent eagle (Spilornis klossi)‚ at 450 g (1 lb) and 40

    Surprised by Joy Death of a child is the most devastating experience a parent can ever face. A piece of yourself is lost and your future is forever changed. In the sonnet “Surprised by Joy”‚ William Wordsworth relates how a moment of joy caused him to remember the death of his daughter‚ Catherine. Even the title of the poem is “Surprised by Joy”‚ it is definitely not a poem about sharing joyfulness and happiness. The joy only lasts for a second‚ or even less than that‚ because any joy will bring

    The Eagle/Winter 1. The expressions are peculiarly effective to help give off the tone‚ image‚ and feeling of the poem. From the expressions like “crooked hands”‚ “close to the sun”‚ and “ringed with the azure world”‚ it shows the meaning of the poem with lots of imagery.

    Follow the Eagle

    After reading the story‚ “Follow the Eagle‚” I am left with astonishment at the understatement in the writing and the deep significance in the context. I believe that this story is not only about Eagle’s journey over the cliff‚ but the journey is an allegory to Native Americans and other minority groups trying to achieve higher status in the white hierarchy of the West. First Domingo is riding on a “Japanese cycle stolen from a Colorado U law student.” The story informs the reader that Domingo is
