Kittens are cute,

If they play,

Then they will purr,,

To make you stay.

Even if you have to go,

Never say, "goodbye."

Some of them would never leave your side.

Gallery Walk

By reading the Gallery Walks, I found many different kinds of interesting people, but I found that these three characters were particularly interesting.

I was very much fascinated by the life of Primavera Giovanni, age 28, of Madrid, Spain, who, unfortunately, had a vocal cord disorder which caused her to take on the name of the 'black sheep' of her highly talented family. As the fourth eldest of seven children, her family, who did not know about her disorder, made her feel uncomfortable and rejected and that was why she ran away from home. That was only the beginning of a hard life because later on, Primavera went through marriage, divorce, losing her children to their father and, finally, taking them back legally. I think that she had a very interesting life.

This next person was one of whom I thought had accomplished the most in her lifetime. Vicky Baudillo was a young woman of 23 who had emigrated from the Philippines to Canada at the age of eight. It was intriguing because of her secret.

Ingrid Collins seemed to be a very interesting person and I would not mind being next door neighbors. She had gone through a lot of interesting events and experiences in her childhood. She was very ambitious and seemed to be very friendly.

In my view, I wrote about theses characters because they stood out and were well written.

ELA : Joe

And that night when Bill didn't answer the phone, The neighbors found them lying alone. A tired old cowboy who'd finished his work. And a faithful horse who had niver shirked. Together they lived, together they died; In death as in life, side by side.

I thought that this picture would match stanza 11 because it is as if they were dying together, fading away, forever, from the world.
