Live, Laugh, Dance. Monday, November 14, 2011. Just You And Me. Resting in deep snow,. Listening to flakes softly falling,. In this proud igloo we lay,. Our heads facing open sky. Thoughts way up high. Our only care in the world -. Only worry of the night,. Is to finish our castle. Before the moon casts its light. Hopeful stars in the sky,. A wonderful night it will be,. A wonderful night,. Just you and me. November 14, 2011 at 10:17 AM. I think its lovely. Where did you get the igloo image from? I thoug...

Live, Laugh, Dance: Life of Pi
http://madelines8thgradeblog.blogspot.com/p/life-of-pi.html
Live, Laugh, Dance. This is A Miracle. Heads reel in ringing deafness,. Blurred visions smooth the lines of sight,. And heaven’s hammers pound. Wondrous bolt strikes close. Like blinding white shards of glass. The surface of the sun flashes before me -. Only for a moment. The black night sky. Tearing the dark from our eyes,. Ripping away the veil of fears and death,. Making all one,. A pure black shadow. Chilling to the soul. Smiling, I am not afraid. I live for the close encounters. The performance was ...

Live, Laugh, Dance. This piece is a response to the prompt,. Can we love everyone? This was a very controversial topic, so we decided it would be best to reflect our feelings in a response.

Mr. Roehl then argued it was impossible to love everyone therefore we assigned this prompt. Please let me know your opinion on my response. In a comment below. The commo...

Many thoughts race through my mind, each one questioning my ability of what I am about to accomplish on the very stage in front of me. Sounds of tap, tap, tap, swoosh. Red, orange, yellow - falling,. I don't...

http://madelines8thgradeblog.blogspot.com/p/science.html
Live, Laugh, Dance. Author's Note: This post is a proper research paper in response to my Paris project. This essay focuses on the historical event I wanted to cover from Paris - the Black Death. I worked on using an academic voice throughout my paper while not keeping it too dry. Perhaps the writing technique I was most conscious about while writing the essay was my external transitions. I was consistently working on this throughout the entire paper. February 15, 2012. Contaminated the population by fle...

Live, Laugh, Dance: Re-Birth
http://madelines8thgradeblog.blogspot.com/2011/10/re-birth.html
Live, Laugh, Dance. Monday, October 31, 2011. Nature's first green is gold. Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower;. But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief,. So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay. Death’s final strike is pain. His wrath is hard to drain. His flame becomes a fire;. Everyone’s a liar. Then time begins to fade. New memories are made,. So love will mend the heart,. We will not grow apart. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
