Picture (tilted 90º can't fix)

Setting Description

There is not that much information to describe this picture. There is a white flower, possibly a magnolia, surrounded by a group of red flowers, probably roses. The white flower does not seem to be in the right place, since it is so different from the rest. It is the only white color in the picture, compared to the red petals and green stems from the others. The white flower also looks like is has not bloomed yet, but when it does it will change the picture entirely and would definitely have a deeper image, as if it had a meaning to stand out. If the white flower were not there, this picture would most likely be a lot more meaningless than it really is.

Plot/Story

The gardener had a job to plant a batch of red roses on his back lawn to sell in the spring. While he was doing this, the wind had somehow carried a magnolia flower seed into the group of rose seeds, but since the seeds are so small he did not notice. He started to place the seeds one by one, giving them the same exact treatment that a rose needs. Because it was a magnolia flower, it grew a lot faster than the others. When the gardener came back a week later after the harsh thunderstorm, all the flowers had bloomed and made his whole entire back lawn a deep reddish color, because of how outstanding the petals came to be. However he could make out a hole in his floor of red flowers, there was a white magnolia that had made its own space and pushed the red flowers to the side. It was the one flower that stood out among the others, which made it super special to him. He knew it was the right choice, and picked the flower for her wife as their 5th anniversary gift.

Mamma Mia Play Review

Noah Chi Ms. Guarino IB Lit & Perf  03/05/20 The play “Mamma Mia” by Catherine Johnson had projected many themes throughout the plot. It showed the relationships between certain characters, such as Dana and her daughter Sophie, as well as Dana and the three possible fathers of Sophie. It also showed the theme of forgiveness and trust, about how people come back after leaving and regretting their decisions. The plot is about a daughter who is going to get married while trying to figure out who her dad is so the wedding can be a family bondage as well. In the act of doing so, she tries to keep it hidden from her mother because she wants it to be a surprise, however her mother does not think the same way when she finds out that all the potential fathers are there at the same time. Towards the end, everyone is happy with the outcome and how every person in the play is closer to one another as a family, even with the daughter’s wedding being transformed into the mother’s w...

Poem Short Analyses

The Red Wheelbarrow By William Carlos Williams Even though there are only eight lines in the whole poem, it still conveys a big message. The wheelbarrow in the poem is a symbol for many things that happen in our everyday lives. The wheelbarrow does not have that many actions and is not used for many things, but it is crucial for the farmer to do what he needs to do. The poem itself does not have that much else to it, only four stanzas, not much of a tone, no rhyme scheme, but it still has a message. Mother to Son By Langston Hughes The main message of this poem is to show how hard it is to be a mother. The verbs used are showing what a mother has to go through everyday. The staircase is a symbol to show how it's hard for the mother to walk up and down, or how to support her child with the obstacles that stand in her way. The G's are cut off from many words, there is no rhyme scheme, no stanzas, and the tone of the voice can be determined as more raised than the average...
