Oak tree

sweet scent of the countryside grass and scans the backyard. It is littered with trees; amongst the ocean of green grass, he sees the biggest tree standing in the middle: the old oak tree. Standing prouder than all the others, its vibrant green leaves touch the blue sky. Looking under the oak tree, he sees what he has been looking for. Hanging from the thick oak branches is a brown woven rope. The sturdy rope is tied around the object of his fascination: an old piece of rubber. He runs out toward it

Like an Oak tree. An oak tree is my personal mascot because it has an amazing life cycle. It starts as a tiny acorn and grows to be a tall and mighty Oak whose trunk is resistant to disease and harsh weather. At the age of eight, I thought less of myself. I felt inferior since I only knew so much. All I ever worried about was how much bread my father brought to our rented house before I slept. Eating was the order of the day, it was rather a goal I pledged to accomplish on a daily basis. Besides

Finding gifts in the knothole of the Radley's oak tree has helped Jem and Scout come to age. A quote that demonstrates this is “‘Don’t eat things you find, Scout.’ ‘This wasn’t on the ground, it was in a tree.’ Jem growled ‘Well it was,’ I said. ‘It was sticking in that tree yonder, the one comin from school.’ ‘Spit it out right now!’... ‘Don’t you know you’re not supposed to even touch those trees over there? You’ll get killed if you do!’”(Lee 37-38) In this quote, Lee illustrates that Jem is afraid

showed what the kids reactions were to the frozen snow on the ground. “The tree was a single achient oak; two children could not reach around its trunk and touch hands….A small patch of earth beneaths its branches was packed hard from many fights and furitive crap games,” (225). I drew the tree becuase this tree was foreshadowing on what was going to happen under that oak tree. It also has no leaves because at this time becuasr this is the time that the leaves are falling.

the flowers. Plants and animals help each other every single day. For example a mouse can go up to an oak tree and take a fallen acorn, in a way the oak tree is helping the tiny mouse gather food or, fatten up for the winter so the mouse can survive through the winter or the night. According to source #3 “A hawk swoops down looking for a mouse meal. In a way, the oak tree help the hawk find it’s food.” Addition to that owls in the desert live up in cactuses so when it rains in the

things bothered him, such as, it had an oak tree before his window (Kimmel & Root, 1992). The oak tree was very high and very strong; almost all of the sunshine blocked the palace (Kimmel & Root, 1992). On the other hand, because the rock was too hard, the king also did not have a well, therefore, he hoped to get a well. Every day, the king can only watch other countries use clean water (Kimmel & Root, 1992). So the king said, if anyone who can cut the oak tree and dig a well, he would give him a half

his most seminal works, 7000 oaks, exemplified his belief that art could take on a form which was defined as both interdisciplinary and participatory. Beuys placed a pile of stones in the town Kassel, Germany. From above one could see that this pile of stones created an arrow, which pointed toward a single oak tree. He stated that the stones should not be moved unless an oak tree was planted in the new location of the stone, over the course of several years 7,000 oak trees were then planted by people

substance, that would turn all the plant matter in its path to dead remains. Under the cloak of night, she snuck to the outskirts of the fairy village, located at the heart of Quedayla. Where she placed the tar like substance at the foot of an old oak tree and it started to decay. At a slower rate than Fowley was hopping, but she had no time to fix it, because there are fairy guards patrolling the border of the fairy village, to ensure everyone in the village stayed safe. The next day in the fairy

soared across the sky, far into the unknown. The narrator also lets a song be heard to the world, also unable to follow this, because of course, you cannot see words with your eyes. After much time, he or she finds both unbroken, the arrow in an oak tree, and the song within a heart of a friend. However, the meaning of the poem runs much deeper than a simplistic story of someone shooting an arrow and letting loose a song, unable to find them until years later. The poem, upon being looked into, is

The Museum of Contemporary Art currently has two exhibitions on view; one is called “Dirge: Reflections on [Life and] Death,” and the other is “Sara VanDerBeek.” One work of art that stood out the most to me was Epitaph from 2011 by Pedro Reyes. Reyes works are often meant to physically engage his viewers in order to shift their social and emotional expectations. The Epitaph invites his viewers to imagine a future in which they no longer exist, and then create a short message that conveys the life
