  4. Awesome Sentences At night I would lie in bed and watch the show, how, bees squeezed through the cracks of my bedroom wall and flew circles around the room, making that propeller sound, a high pitched zzzzzz that hummed along my skin. -The Secret life of Bees, By Sue Monk Kidd I went on my way.

The snow fell from the darkening, leading sky. -The Pianist, By WladslawSzpilman
