Auguries of innocence song

Auguries of innocence by William Blake Face To see a World in a Grain of Sand  And a Heaven in a Wild Flower  Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand  And Eternity in an hour A Robin Red breast in a Cage  Puts all Heaven in a Rage  A Dove house filld with Doves & Pigeons  Shudders Hell thr' all its regions  A dog starvd at his Masters Gate  Predicts the ruin of the State  A Horse misusd upon the Road  Calls to Heaven for Human blood  Each outcry of the hunted Hare  A fibre from the Brain does tear  A Skylark wounded in the wing  A Cherubim does cease to sing  The Game Cock clipd & armd for fight  Does the Rising Sun affright  Every Wolfs & Lions howl  Raises from Hell a Human Soul  The wild deer, wandring here & there  Keeps the Human Soul from Care  The Lamb misusd breeds Public Strife  And...

My Mandala

Image
My Mandala 5/1: My mandala is in the forest. Trees, grass, and moss completely surround my mandala. Inside my mandala there is tons of sticks and logs on the right side of my mandala. However, on the left side of my mandala there is only grass with one patch of clovers in the left corner of my mandala. In the center of my mandala there is a leaf that is different and sticks out from all of the other leaves in the mandala. The leaf is a very light brown. It resembles a tan or khaki color. The leave feels really crusty and dead like it could be torn apart in a second. It is really rough and brittle. The leaf is really small it is smaller than the size of my hand. The leaf reminds me of an individual human. It is one out of hundreds of millions, it is a living organism, and there are veins running through the entire leaf similar to a human. Reflection: This is connected to art class for a few different reasons. First it was such a lovely place that it could be considered a piece of...

Forrest Bathing

Forest Bathing At Signal Mountain Middle High School Tuesday April 25, 2017 Shinrin-yoku or forest bathing. This is a Japanese practice that I had the opportunity to partake in. This is the process of walking or sitting in the forest and enjoying the peace, relaxation, and not having to think about nothing at all. Forest bathing possibly might be the next yoga. I really enjoyed the quite peacefulness of forest bathing. It was a memorable experience and I cannot remember the last time I felt that relaxed. A lot of my stress was taken away. All though this was a quick ten minute forest bathing session I will relish the moment and I cannot wait to do it again. I saw many cool things on my journey. I was lying down on the forest floor so above me I saw a massive green canopy of leaves above me with long skinny branches attached to each branch. There were hundreds of leaves on the ground from Autumn. I saw a carpenter bee flying around who did not seem to know what he was doing...

Nature Disturbed Memes

Nature Disturbed Meme 5/8:  WARNING! NATURE IS BEING DISTURBED  This is my first meme. It clearly shows how nature is disturbed and that people are ruining the beauty of it.This meme was taken slightly outside of the woods. The orange cone and abundance of concrete conveys the simple message of telling citizens to not harm nature as much. JUST YOUR AVERAGE CLIFF IN NATURE This is my second meme. A cliff is usually a beautiful thing in nature. However, this is just somebodies cliff bar wrapper. This meme explains how people pollute too much and that after enough pollution people might forget what is actually pretty and what matters. Reflection: This connects to the skills I have used and learned in language arts. This used satire and connections to create a meme to help raise awareness about the environment and try to stop the amount that is disturbing nature. I used many ATL skills such as research in form by searching for examples of nature memes and thin...
