We had been silent a long time, and the edge of the sun
sank nearer and nearer the prairie floor, when we saw a
figure moving on the edge of the upland, a gun over his
shoulder. He was walking slowly, dragging his feet along as
if he had no purpose. We broke into a run to overtake him.
How does the imagery in this passage from My Antonia
help readers understand the theme "The prairie destroys
those who are not prepared to live on it"?
The father's walk happens at the end of the day.
The fast children overtake the weak and slow footsteps
of the father.
The setting sun shows the quiet on the prairie.
The prairie floor makes the prairie seem like a house.

waves come crashing to grey sullen shores.

powerful and strong, it breathes and roars.

cascading and caressing each grain of sand,

a warm embrace between sea and land.

high above, a seagull soars high.

wings of purity it spreads to fly.

battling high against darkened cloud,

in a wind that blows fiercely, flying graceful and proud.

beneath, the sand is soft and warm.

sculpted by nature, it's weathered the storm.

a passionate battle between calmness and rage,

a new chapter's beginning; don't turn the last page.

i listen again to the whispering waves,

music of nature calming and brave.

its power unknown, its stillness untamed,

mysterious and magical, a treasure earth claims.
