He is highly regarded for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial. A Brook In The City The farmhouse lingers, though averse to square With the new city street it has to wear A number in. But what about the brook That held the house as in an elbow-crook? I ask as one who knew the brook, its strength And impulse, having dipped a finger length And made it leap my knuckle, having tossed A flower to try its currents where they crossed. The meadow grass could be cemented down From growing under pavements of a town; The apple trees be sent to hearth-stone flame.
ART 199 Karmin Godina May 8, 2013 From His Lens to My Soul Never before had I thought of a photograph as art until I was introduced to a photograph taken by Ansel Adams. I found myself standing in front the framed piece for quite some time enjoying every aspect of the picture. It was his famous photo of Bridalveil Fall at Yosemite National Park. I knew at that moment that I was going to take it home. When I got home I did some research on the internet and found that overall most of his work was done in black and white, and that most of his work was of nature.
He explains the moon; white and nearly full. He also writes of “long rows of trees by the creek” as well as a “low light upon the rolling plains,” and finally, “the stars of the Big Dipper.” All of these observations are meant to appeal to the audience’s sense of sight. The scenery all around his grandmother’s house that he describes give his readers the notion of how inspiring nature can be. Momaday cherishes his grandmother’s house so much that he even finds the surroundings significant to mention. Despite the
And the first time we went there, I saw a lot more birds. This wasn’t the case however for our second time returning there. We walked down the pathway with snow at every step. It was very cold and there and the snow was pretty deep, for me at least. However I did get some awesome facts about the birds at the Great Salt Lake shore lands!
The Village of North Conway “The wilderness is near as well as dear to every man. Even the oldest villages are indebted to the border of wild wood which surrounds them, more than to the gardens of men” said by the famous Henry David Thoreau in 1906 describing the bungalows and villages along the way up the Merrimack River. I find his writing interesting and true, and his quote of course captures what I believe to be nature and the wild nestled in a town by the name of North Conway, a heavenly and popular town, known for its outdoor festivities and outlets in the beautiful Carroll County in the mountainous Washington national forest. The town is always alive and full of energy, from the cold frozen over winter months to the sometimes sweltering heat of the summer time, there is always something going on. Then again North Conway is the largish village in the town of Conway, which is nestled in the glorious basin of MT Washington to the west and Merriman forest towards
Austen’s book is set in the countryside and she goes into deep detail about places such as Barton Cottage. She describes Barton Valley as “a pleasant, fertile spot, well wooded, and rich in pasture”. Austen goes into so much detail that the reader can imagine these places which helps the reader get much more involved into the book. Rankin’s novel is a lot more city based (Edinburgh) and like Austen, Rankin goes into a lot of detail to describe the setting. One setting he describes with such detail is the beach with it “stretched out for hundreds of yards” the “rocky outcrops” and the “clouds visible in the sky”.
Many people picnicking here, families just having good times together. Walking down a trail I see a small glass with water and inside a cigarette put out. The water at this lake seems much greener than all the other water in the park. Hiking more I become aware of all the fungus. I ask Aaron what he thought of the lake and he responds, “I'm surprised to see this many types of mushroom fruiting in early October.
There are green belts along the rivers and creeks, linear groves of hickory and pecan, willow and witch hazel.” On the other hand, White uses nature like “The lake had never been what you would call a wild lake. There were cottages sprinkled around the shores, and it was in farming country although the shores of the lake were quite heavily wooded.” The only other similarity between the two is that the two authors remember their past from what they experience. Momaday is going to his grandmother’s funeral when he remembers how his grandmother used to cook food for him and the stories she told him. White on the other hand thinks about his past after everything that his son does. He compares his son to himself and what he used to do when he was

This discussion mainly sets out to examine gardening as an art and understand its importance for the inhabitants of urban areas in south-eastern Europe, which are “drowning” in concrete. In fact, gardening is an ancient activity if we review the human history. It has its origin in the book of Genesis in the story of the creation. As I think about the art of gardening, I reflect on the Garden of Eden in the Old Testament. God created man and woman to be the keepers of a divine place where there was no pain, no worry, no tears but only happiness and joy.
