    made our way through the furiously hot city. Up ahead a bridge loomed‚ and I was in such a hurry to cross it. We started moving up over the city and then‚ through the shiny window glass‚ I saw the blue-green waters‚ reflecting like a mirror to the sky. My heart soared; I was home. With the bridge behind us I could see the splashing waters below‚ and my toes itched to dig into the warm sand. Pressing my fingers to the glass‚ I could feel the suns rays warming my fingers. I longed to roll down the

    In section 3 of the poem ‘The Lady of Shallot’ the ‘Lady’ sees Sir Lancelot riding on the road beside the river towards Camelot. His appearance is the first thing that has ever made the ‘Lady’ look directly out of the window‚ instead of through the mirror like she usually did.

    attention nor affection...sad to say that it hurts me still...up until this very moment. Watching A Journey Home left me emotional. I felt my partially healed wounds bleed again. It made me miss my grandfather even more. So I stared at the sky that night...a thing that Papa (my grandfather) and I used to do...desperately trying to find some form of comfort; but I’ve never felt so alone...I could hardly believe that he’s dead and gone for five years already... I’m not ashamed that
