Author's Note: It is the holidays, so there is an obvious reason to write this, but also one memory stuck in my head of thanksgiving, so I kind of expanded that into a piece.
The sounds of laughter fill the house and threaten to leak into the outside world,which seems so far away, because here, in this house, it is the definition of family. We sit around the big table and pass the food, like an assembly line. Our mouths salivate from the plates covering the table,as it threatens to creak with all the heaviness of food, happiness, and memories. Cell phones, T.Vs, and computers seem like foreign objects to us, and they are tucked away into our minds for a time other then this.
My bed feels like the greatest invention known to man when i finally fall into it, and feelings of joy help to blanket me and keep me warm, to wash away the feelings of sadness to know that this day is almost over, this day that felt like a year, if only it were longer....
That was good, very well written. just all over your blog capitalize I
ReplyDeleteThat was really good. I like how you described things and this piece was really cool.
ReplyDeleteThis was an excellent stream of consciousness. All of the sentences flowed together nicely and I got a great mental picture.
ReplyDeleteI'm hungry now! I wouldn't have left that sad little note at the end though.
