Both daisies and tulips are the perfect choice to make a beautiful floral arrangement, still they have very little in common. From their appearance, to their growing needs. Daisies and tulips should be understood to be as completely two different groups of plants. Despite the beauty in both plants the main differences between daisies and tulips are in their looks. Daisies grow in groups and can range in size up to three feet tall and wide. A daisy is made up of two flowers white petals and a yellow center, although the flower can sometimes have a pink or rose color. The usually white petals count as one flower and the cluster the little yellow disc petals that form the 'eye' is another. Red, flashing orange, sunny yellow and surprisingly
She is supposed to be like an angel seen always wearing white or white accessories. Daisy is portrayed as pure and innocent. On the other hand Myrtle is describes as a fat unpleasant woman, who is only with Tom for the things he gets her. Another difference is both woman have different roles in society. Daisy is married to a rich man living in a big house wearing the best clothes.
Can someone who is mentally ill truly love someone? If so, then how do they love? Is it different than how a sane person loves? I believe people who are disturbed can love another person, although it is not in the way people want to be loved. Someone who is suffering from mental illness or are mentally disturbed love in a way of obsession. They love so much that they are not able to let go of their loved ones and become deranged when they lose them. Short stories, “A Rose For Emily” by William Faulkner and “What We Talk About When We Talk About Love” by Raymond Carver, demonstrate how someone who is disturbed can love another.
“It has always seemed strange to me... the things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second.” This quote was once said by an amazing author, who described the world’s society today so perfectly that one may forget that he had was describing his society in the early and mid-nineteenth hundreds. John Steinbeck is considered one of America’s greatest author of literature. Many of his work is still read today as required reading in most high schools and college literature classes throughout the United States. His most famous story that had outlived him was the Grapes of Wrath, which led to him receive the Nobel Prize in Literature and the Pulitzer Prize in 1940. Many of John Steinbeck told in a realistic view of life and how men lived in them. Steinbeck grew up in California's Salinas Valley, a diverse area with a rich history. His upbringing help shape his writing, which gave many of his works a sense of place. The Chrysanthemums is a short story a part of John Steinbeck collection of The Long Valley. In his short story, The Chrysanthemums, it deal with different problems in society; however, some problems stand out more than others. Many people have interpret the story into many different ways, but my interpretation of the story depicts the inequality of gender in society, the analysis of the character Elisa , and the symbolic meaning of the Chrysanthemums.
So who has been manipulating who? The tulip in its part has given us the desire of beauty, while we in turn select for the most beautiful. We have instead been living a relation of co-evolution as explained by Pollan. Nomadic hunters relied on distinguishing flowers to get to future fruits before others. Also the vibrant colors tulips produced genetically, favored us to choose certain strains. Flowers in some way have been domesticating us to choose their strains. Plants related their flowers beauty to successive reproduction and thus evolved its flower to adjust to human desire. Flowers indeed have manipulated humans to fit their pollination needs.
It doesn’t take hours of research to find the typical symbolism behind the most basic colors, white, and red among them. Brides wear white to symbolize purity or virtue. People give white roses as a token of the purity of the heart or the purity of their feelings. Red is associated with passion or love.

The artwork created by Madeline Bryan is a narrative about flowers. Each art piece consists of one flower, full of colors. Although each picture comprises of one flower and tells a narrative, individually the pictures represent a different balance type. For example, the yellow flower with out the stem, you can tell the artist is using radial symmetry; that is because you are viewing the flower from up above.
The new version of Sleeping Beauty, “Briar Rose (Sleeping Beauty)”, by Anne Sexton is more modern and has added imagery than the original version “Little Briar-Rose” by The Grimm brothers. Anne Sexton and The Grimm Brothers write completely different and it shows in their pieces. There are many techniques in the writing that these authors chose to make one version be more up to date and descriptive than the other version.
Many popular novels are often converted into television movies. The brilliant fiction novel, Flowers for Algernon written by Daniel Keyes, was developed into a dramatic television film. Flowers for Algernon is about a mentally retarded man who is given the opportunity to become intelligent through the advancements of medical science. This emotionally touching novel was adapted to television so it could appeal to a wider, more general audience. Although the novel and film are similar in terms of plot and theme, they are different in terms of characters.
In comparison to “The Flowers” by Alice Walker and “The Sniper” by Liam o’flaherty the story “The Dogs Could Teach Me” by Gary Paulsen contained the most description. The reason of this is because the way the author, Gary Paulsen, explains in greater detail how he himself had felt physically and mentally. The other stories, The Sniper & The Flowers, do describe how the way the atmosphere has affected the plot, these authors do not properly explain
Last year, wild daffodils appeared daintily and sparsely across the eastern portion of the meadow which defines the northern border of my yard.
In the short stories, Marigolds by Eugenia Collier, and The Bet by Anton Chekhov, both Lizabeth and the Lawyer, along with their understanding of life, are similar, as well as very different. While both Lizabeth and the Lawyer develop a deeper understanding and knowledge of their situations by the end of each story, the processes that lead them to these realizations are very different, as race, gender, and social class all play a role in how the two characters develop.
Tulips in California-the winters are not cold enough. But the obsessive among us, the true lover of flowers, of garden, earth, and growth persists. Women mostly, women like my mother, know that tulips will not bloom unless they have six weeks of cold, yet they persist. My mother simulates the growing conditions: she places the tulip bulbs in a special drawer in the refrigerator. A drawer empty but for tulip bulbs, resting, maturing for six weeks long. During these six weeks, my father is periodically chastised for placing softening apples in the refrigerator so they will not rot on the kitchen counter. Chemicals released by apples stunt the maturation of tulip bulbs and prevent blooming.
“The Daffodils” by William Wordsworth is a very well known poem which was written in 1803. It is written with a traditional style and has a flowing rhyme scheme which makes the poem flow well with a nice rhythm when red aloud. The writer describes in first person narrative the beauty and joy of nature as he is wandering beside a shoreline in the lake district. “Miracle on St David's Day” by Gillian Clarke is inspired by “The Daffodils” and was written around 1980, it contrasts the “The Daffodils” in style because it is deliberately made to flow unsteadily and confuse the reader which reflects the nature of the mental patients Gillian Clarke is describing. Gillian Clarke does this by the use of enjambment which means that a new stanza starts halfway trough a sentence. A reason for these contrasts could be the fact that Gillian Clarke's poem was written about 180 years later which means there are more contemporary ideas and styles. However since “Miracle on St David's Day was inspired by “The Daffodils” there are strong similarities in themes like, the beauty of nature and the power of memories which I will explain later on.

visiting Italy. He falls in love with an Italian woman, Sofia, and he offers to help her with her grocery bags. They become close as the man walks Sofia home. One day, the man left a love letter accompanied with a bouquet of chrysanthemums on a motorcycle parked in front of Sofia’s house. Then, a truck knocked down the motorcycle, making it look like Sofia died in an accident. This is because in Italy, Chrysanthemums represents funerals. Other neighbors came to leave chrysanthemums on her door steps. After a while, Sofia opened her front door and became puzzled by the situation. This can be an example of 1. Assumption of Similarities. The American man did not anticipate about the meanings the flower has in other cultures, and ended up making Sofia’s whole neighborhood think that Sofia died in an
