Sunset at The Brake
By Veronica L. Anderson

I was taken aback by a most splendid site.
I observed the Sun on it’s usual plight.
The day faded away along with it’s light.
All my senses became at one.
Nothing more could be done.
I believe that I was entranced…
Or perhaps caught in the romance.
I could taste the essence of the sweet warmth of the day.
I could feel the warmth bush my face.
The smell of the warmed air drifted and tickled my nose.
My eye, I did close.
I could hear different animals and my own heart slow.
The day was coming to an end.
I looked about to all of my friends.
This had been a wonderful day…
It ended with a sunset at The Brake.

A Love of Nature

I have been in love with nature for as long as I can remember. Summer vacations in Wisconsin gave me the opportunities to really be one on one with nature through camping, hiking, horseback riding and swimming. As time passed, I allowed the obligations and responsibilities of everyday life distract my love of nature but I found that it was hard to feel that same sense of freedom and tranquility when I lost touch with the great outdoors. A few years back, I found nature again through visiting national wildlife refuges speckled around my home state. Refuges such as Morgan and Mathew Brake, give visitors the opportunity to safely enjoy nature once again. Visitors can breath fresh air and listen to the sounds and view nature as well as read all about the animals that frequent the location as well as live there permanently. Four years ago, I decided to start saving injured turtles. If I saw one in or on the side of the road, the would carefully retrieve it and get it to safety. In th...

Racism in America

Yesterday, a show was canceled because a cast member sent out a racist rant on a fellow human being. Racism in American society is something that will never ever disappear. Though African Americans aren't the only ones who have to face racism on a daily basis, they are the ones that experience it the most. As I make plans to travel this summer, I am a bit fearful about places where it will or won't be safe to visit because of my color. America was supposed to be a melting pot of culture where anyone who came could live the American dream. Well, what is the American dream? Is it to come to a place and be discriminated against and constantly treated unfairly because of misconceptions that others may have about your particular race? I am an American citizen and I shouldn't have to be afraid of traveling across America to visit other states. The fact is, I have to be afraid, I have to remain vigilant and I can't let my guard down or I could run the risk of becoming a stat...
