Term Papers on Creative Writing
Creative Writing As a child, on any hot, sunny summer day there was always a good chance that my family and I would be going swimming. Going to our cousins’ house to swim in their pond were exciting times. We parked in their driveway and walked through the very tall pine trees that went up as far as the eye could see and as far down. The trees seemed like an entrance into another world. If I looked up, I barely saw the tips of the trees swaying back and forth by a light breeze. I faintly smelled the light scent of pine that symbolized the country smell. I walked thorough the trees toward the pond and I entered a new world. If I turned around, I couldn’t see the house anymore. It was so quiet; there was not a person around except my parents, my brother, Joey, my sister, Emily, and I. The water looked peaceful and calm, just like its surroundings, as us kids impatiently waited to jump in and make some waves. It took a long time to get there, but we made it. Going through the same routine that we went thorough every time we wanted to swim was exhausting. Emily and I always convinced our parents that it was hot enough to go swimming.

Whenever I go swimming now, I love to just relax most of the time and there is nothing like lying down on a float and feeling the tiny ripple of waves beneath you. It is very soothing and could put you to sleep, if you wanted to. The pond was about four miles away from our house. As a child, I thought that the drive would never end. Whenever I was this excited, time went by slow and of course, so did the drive. I knew we had arrived when I could smell a stench of dirty old gym socks that made my face cringe every time. My cousins live on a dairy farm and that stench was manure. During the summers that smell was at its worse. Each time I remembered glancing around the half acre, green area around the pond. I would soak this sight in. Occasionally there was a light breez... This is ONLY a preview of the article. If you would like to view the entire document, you must subscribe to Digital Term Papers.
