He Told Me One Last Story

He had a big, deep voice, and thinning gray hair. His eyes were big and friendly. He was in no way a fancy man. He used to live in Brooklyn, and even among all of the designer outfits, he always preferred a simple t-shirt and sweatpants with a pair of worker’s boots. He lived his life however he wanted, even if it would embarrass those around him. No matter, he was a loving man, and he always had time for his family. He was never too busy with work or his social life to relax with us for a little while. These traits all came together to give him a lively, impish, and extremely loving personality. They made him my Grandpa.

The writer adds a conversation with her mother, reading, “‘You don’t know yourself,’ she’ll say. ‘That's what I worry about. How can you get married when you don’t

His facial expressions seem to look like something is bothering him. He wears a gray hat and has grown a long white beard on his unshaven face. The bags under his eyes seem to compliment the walking stick and both show the aging process of man. His clothes look to be unwashed and is probably the only clothes he owns. His clothes consist of a long white v-neck long sleeved shirt and a pair of torn blue jeans to cover his legs. He also has a sack that is hung over his right shoulder. This sack is the same color or appears to be the same color of his hat. The walking stick he carries clenched in his left-hand stands from feet to chest. The knees of the old man are slightly bent and his head is hung over to the side. His shoes look to be worn down and are gray. Next to his shoes is a pile of trash. In the garbage, there is broken glass, wrappers, a piece of fruit that was bitten into, leaves, and branches. It looks to be that he is on dirt but the background fades to gray.

With each impingement, he angrily moaned at his assailants. And, there was even one point in the short film… one moment where you could see him clearly… for just a second or two, an image that burrowed its way into my mind. His harrowed face, the jaundice of his skin, and sunken eyes. He reminded me of my grandfather in the last few days of his life before pancreatic cancer had taken him. How he had become a shell of what he had once been, a blackening peel decomposing before our very eyes.

His deep wrinkles carved a map of his life. His galaxy-blue eyes were jaded. His skin was time ravaged. He was my grandfather. I watched from the balcony, his trying to pick up his home key from the ground.

According to Louv, the replacement of open meadows, woods and wetlands by manicured lawns, golf courses and housing developments has led children away from the natural world. What little time they spend outside is on designer playgrounds or fenced yards and is structured, safe and isolating. Such antiseptic spaces provide little opportunity for exploration, imagination or peaceful contemplation. Louv’s idea is not new. Theodore Roosevelt saw a prophylactic dose of nature as a counter to mounting urban malaise in the early 20th century, and others since have expanded on the theme.

I floated back to where I left her, knowing that in my heart this was the moment of a lifetime. As I took her face in my hands and kissed her sweet cheeks and said, “Lizzy my sweet Lizzy, will you marry me”? She whispered as she said “yes I will marry you my dearest Montresor”. I swept my future bride off her

The beauty of not belonging and seclusion from Cane Creek Park create a feeling of wonder and amazement, that makes a person long to go back time after time. The willow trees stand gracefully, and elegantly as they dance around the park and convey positive vibes. There is a dock that contains many mysteries and many unanswered questions. The swing that stands distant from the rest is worn and waits for the next child to find it and to find comfort in it. There is also the rippling water and the curiosities that behold the tree that has been there for ages. It’s beauty is conveyed by the piercing warm sun. This park creates a safe place for those whose mind may be depressed or maybe just lonely, and it comforts those with the allurement of

The pain is painted across his face, as feelings of fear and sorrow resurface when trying to relive the memories

Grin die words were all babbled up in between his tears and breathless gasps, but Alva could tell by his tone that something tragic had happened.

Living in Rockville, Indiana, there is only one park available called Beechwood Park. It’s a large park with a pool, baseball/softball fields, a picnic area, a basketball court, and of course a playground. The playground consists of many monkey bars, swing sets, slides, and other things to climb on, such as a dinosaur, a play house, and a fire truck. The dinosaur and play house are basic monkey bar type structures, but the fire truck offers many things like a balance beam, steering wheels, and extra benches to take a team of firemen. However, finding a day that had the amount of children my research consisted of was difficult. Finding a day with a birthday party or celebration was my only hope. On one sunny Saturday afternoon, I drove by and noticed a birthday party being set up, so I decided to stop and explain to the parents why I was sitting on a bench watching their children. The weather couldn’t have been better and with the sound of country music playing in the background the observation was pretty peaceful.
