After reading all the fables in Aesop’s Fables, There are three fables impresses me most. The first one is The Mountain in Labor. Nevertheless, my opinion is different from that of the allegory. As far as I’m concerned, preparing well before a coming calamity is better than doing nothing and just waiting.

Everywhere around there was nothing but faded denim jeans, cowboy boots, old t-shirts, plaid shirts, and the occasional stetson. The screeching and bleating of surrounding animals bounced around in my head, making

The motif of the lamb leg within “Lamb to the Slaughter”, by Roald Dahl, contributes to the development of the story by embolizing Mrs. Maloney’s facade of innocence, which in turn strengthen the moral dilemma of either turning herself in as a criminal risking her child’s life or to continue living as a metaphoric lamb leg with the benefit of allowing her to raise her child without fear. Starting with why the lamb leg emblemizes Mrs. Maloney’s facade of innocence, one must first look at what a lamb

“The Lamb” is a poem written by William Blake that has a handful of ideas or concepts going on all at once. The setting is unknown to the readers, but we know that the speaker is a child because it is made clear in the 17th line where Blake writes “I a child & thou a lamb.” When I first read this poem, I was dazed and confused. I initially thought why the child is talking to an animal when Blake writes ““Little Lamb who made thee” (1). Blake then proceeds to ask questions about the lamb’s origin

Blakes Archetypes William Blake is one of the most famous poets in the Romantics period. A unique thing about Blake is his ability to not only write poems but to be able to combine that with his artistic ability.

Just a few short 6 years ago, I was gifted a crazy ball of wool I call Lillieanna. She was a Suffolk lamb which my aunt had bought for me as a present. At that time, the only reason I had for picking her was because she was the only one who didn't knock me over. Now, was she the best one in the barn, certainly not.

What would you have done if you were in Amir’s position? Everyone in life has a choice. While some choices in life tend to be simple and easy, other times they tend to be more complex, emotionally challenging choices and in those cases it can be difficult to choose the better choice, just like Amir had a choice when he had seen Hassan getting sexually assaulted in the alley.
