Descriptive Essay As I opened my eyes, I saw him lying there, still sleeping and exploring his deepest thoughts. The cold morning air nibbled at my nose as the sun warmed my body. I leaned over and gave him a gentle kiss on his lips to wake him. Opening his eyes slowly he looked over at me with a smile. As he stroked the side of my face with his hand, I felt this caramel colored skin melt over me. After laying there we held each other in perfect silence, we decided to put our clothes on and go for a morning walk.
We took off down a path covered softly with dark green moss and tiny pink flowers. Off to the side of the path were endless trees and plants all bunched together to make one beautiful landscape. After a while, we reached a sparkling, narrow river. It was about nine feet deep and nearly two feet deep. The path went right alongside the water. Down the river, we came to a deep water hole where all the fish danced in the swirling currents. I noticed the water bank was beginning to flow a little faster now, and I could hear the steady, rushing noise of the water falling over the cliffs that were ahead of us. We walked to the edge to look over the crystal clear lagoon below us. The waterfalls dropped about thirty feet down before it met the pool below. At the sides of the beautiful waterfall were ferns, other green plants, and rocks glistening in the sun. Vines weaved their way down from the trees that towered from the bright sky above us. We decided to climb down towards the water pool.
Following the trail, we lost the amazing sight of the glistening waterfall as we went farther down the cliff side. As we reached closer and closer to the bottom, ginormous rocks at the edge blocked all view of the pool and waterfall as it fell with such grace. Once it became visible, it was a better view than you can ever imagine. From our perspective, we could see the air vapor rising from where the

    “And on your left you’ll see one of the tallest waterfalls in the world” the train conductor announced. Everyone shuffled for their camera to capture the moment. As the scene came into view the cog train was filled with the sound of a disappointed gasp, followed by glances to the vested instructor that read ‘are you kidding me’. The “waterfall” looked more like a miniscule stream than a massive landmark he told us it would be. Because we were near the top of Pike’s Peak, he wasn’t completely wrong. We were expecting something the size of Niagara Falls.…

    In the peaceful twilight, I would crawl out of my bedroom window and jump over the walls surrounding your home. I would crouch silently there in the orchard below, just waiting for even a small glimpse of you, appearing at your window, combing your hair and humming softly. I would watch you as the heavenly rays of moonlight streak through your golden hair, fall upon your rosy lips, and almost create an aura of beauty around your perfect figure.…

    My Special Place

    As dew glistens across a field of grass and wild flowers, the sun rises, and a new day dawns. Butterflies dance across the field as they collect pollen off of the wildflowers and the sounds of birds singing their morning tune resounding across scenery. The gentle morning breeze brings the intense color of the flowers to life. Their natural soft and sweet fragrance along with the trees swaying is hypotonic in their rhythm. The gentle babbling of a slow flowing creek, Crackling and bubbling as it flows down stream with its crystal clear water, shows no signs of ever being touched by man. My special place overwhelms me with feelings by the flooding of senses.…

    At close quarters to the falls there is a whole new array of sounds: boomings, gurglings, pattering of spray, sudden spurts and bubblings come and go as the water is thrown off the stones from up above. A soft, gentle mist begins to form on her arms as she moves closer. With a deep breathe; the crisp, fresh air fills her lungs. As she closes her eyes to take yet another breathe, she can taste the dewy sweet air on her tongue. The falls beckon her to come even closer. She pauses while building the courage to step onto the wet, rigid, slippery rocks in order to move forward toward the raging water. With each step, the fear of falling consumes her. As she enters the frigid water she gasps.…

    As soon as we crossed the river we walked along it to the hill. Great plants grew among the roots of the big trees and spread rosettes of green fans. When the wind blew the leaves were singing on the trees. The blotched fungi and moss extended through the roots of the trees. The fungi were different sizes and color. The moss was so soft, that if you lie on it you would feel a soft pillow under you. The honeysuckle was ripe on the bushes.…

    A Day Out

    A Day Out It was a cloud-filled day on November 17, 1997. I have a day off, so I felt like taking a walk to the mountain near my home. I wanted to explore the nature in the woods, climb up to the top of the mountain and go camping with my friends. I live by the woods only 100 feet away, so it was easy to stroll there. On the way, I walked on a shaking wooden bridge built by some men long ago. Below the bridge was running water, which came from the waterfall far away on the top of the misty mountains. I can hear the water dropping through a series of jagged rocks even from this distance. I can not wait to get there. The water rushed in torrents as it neared the bridge, crashing against the sandy shores. I heard the birds sad song on this gray and melancholy day as dark clouds covered the sky. The wind washed the waves ashore, to the south of the bridge. Dark columns of clouds blanketed the sun. Everything in the woods looked mysterious and strange. I stood on the bridge, so I saw all things unfolded before my eyes. It is so beautiful. There were several people standing on the edge of the river, obviously looking at the thunderous waterfall. They inhaled the sprays. A lady sat on the rock; she was thinking deep, perhaps at the sky, the river, and the waterfall. She wore a long, wavy, black skirt and a bright red shirt with a pink bonnet. I felt very close to the lady, though she was far away. The lady seemed to be part of the woods and all things that happened at the moment. I continued to walk to the mountain. It looks so big in front of me. The first thing I like to do is climbed up to the top of the mountain. I already prepared for myself a bag of foods, extra blanket, shirt and jeans. When I got there, all of my friends were there, so we started right away. It is so fun. We talked and walked at the same time, so time went by so fast. I dont even remember how I got to the top of the mountain. It is strange? We have so much…

    We sloshed our way along the bank of the creek, "our creek' to us, a pair of ten-year-old males. We had decided on a tour of inspection of our holdings to see what damage the storm had wrought. And the creek was still there, still wandering its earnest, four-foot-wide way through the meadow, which was spongy underfoot with the gray-green, dead-alive promise of what would soon be grass. The rocks had not been harmed, we noted with satisfaction, and the pool beside the willow was still a pool, despite what must have been a temptation to go and join the sea. But the grass along the edges, and along the upper bank--the tough, fibrous evergreen grass that seemed to defy everything in its turn--was lying flat in its place, all tips pointed regimentally after the departing waters. So we were somewhat angry with the water, as a bully who destroys a myth.…

    A quaint aroma of pure harmony and happiness is abroad the marvelous lake designed by years of change. It is a therapeutic retreat hidden from the world we entertain. Soft winds caress your neck as one nears the out-lying woods that surround this satisfaction achieved dwelling. As soon as the beautiful trees with fall colors start to dispel their leaves, it is as if a blanket is covering the forest for a nice nap. There is a road with winding turns, telescopic passageways, and marvelous tunnels to enter the lake. Mirroring the gates of heaven, this is by far the closest thing on earth one will find near that sensation. After the passageway of parade-inspiring colors, one finds the opening to euphoria. It instantly allows someone to see slow sloping depressions covered by tanzanite colored water. Might The water is as still as a cell phone when it is turned off. The air is fragrant with honeysuckles, pine, and grass. For some un-answerable reason, one feels that a whisper tone is mandatory to maintain the perfect cohesion with the outdoor temple. Vegetation is all along the bank with fruit producing vines in astonishing numbers. Birds are flying making their presence known by beautiful songs. Squirrels are running abroad looking for acorns, and the trees feel nice enough to share. Hummingbirds are hovering consistently over the honeysuckle bushes. Woodpeckers are knocking out a tune in stereo surround sound. A simple toss of nutrients into the water brings groups of fish giving their salutations. Towards the dock floats a boat. This is not the everyday boat you expect, but a silent eco-friendly boat, controlled and powered by man. To aid in the tranquility a shade is atop the marvel of water floatation. This allows endless hours of seeking life’s most treasured views. One is be reminded of the outside looking in quote, but now you are on the inside looking out. As one treads atop the tanzanite liquid and hears…

    The sun was shining in brightly and violently onto our pale skin through the small crack of the curtain that was left partially open from the night before. As I slowly began to wake I realized a shadow standing off to the side of my bed, quickly I opened my eyes straining to see this figure through the incoming sun beams. The figure moved and I soon realized it was just my husband Cody as he came closer I let out a long sigh in relief, and giggled a little out loud. He sat on the side of our lumpy bed and smiled down at me, he began with saying good morning and then rushed me out of bed and we started towards the kitchen together hand in hand him with the same smile he woke me up with. Urgently we stopped, and I looked at him with confusion. Cody with the smile that never left his face started to talk and was rushing with excitement “I have booked a trip for us, a trip to New York; we leave in just one hour.” And with that I was at a loss for words.…

    Suddenly, I felt myself falling from the cloud. Down, down, down I fell, farther and farther from home. As I was falling, I saw myself shivering and getting a white flaky color. I didn’t know what was happening at all, and at that same moment I realized what my friend had told me about how I would turn into a solid form. At last I landed on the earth, in the dark green foliage of the rainforest. Around me as far as I could see, were tall trees, dense green leaves, red mushrooms and variously colored insects of every shape and size. Strange creatures surrounded me. The sounds and sights were like nothing I had ever seen or heard before. All I wanted to do was go back home safely.…

    School trip

    I still remember a very wonderful and unforgettable trip with my old classmates in grade eight. It was a beautiful summer day. The sun was shining, the birds were singing and gentle breezes were rustling through the lines of trees. I got up early, preparing necessary things for the trip and went to school to meet my friends. We were all excited and the sound of happy chattering was echoing through the school yard. When everyone had been present, we got on a bus and went to the countryside. The sight we saw through the bus windows had made its way to our mind and we could never forget the peaceful scenery then. There were a lot of paddy fields on the way and the bright colors were pleasant to admire. The trees, which were so lively and green, vibrated in the clear blue sky with some help from the summer wind. The few clouds up above were puffy and white like sweet confectionery. We arrived at early noon so we had a quick tour around the villages before going back to the camping site to have lunch. The local people were very hospitable and kind, which made a deep impression on us. After taking a rest, we went sailing along a river. It was so clear and calm that we could see the whole world reflected on the water surface. We drifted through the natural “mirror” until we reached a small island. It was the habitat of a crane family. When they flapped their wings and flew up the sky, we were all amazed to see a vast sky covered in white feathers. The tour guide told us a lot of interesting things about that island and we then realized how little we knew about the world of nature. When we came back to the camping site, it had already been late in the afternoon. We were able to capture the moment the sun disappeared behind the mountains far, far away. We stood there in silence, admiring the magnificent dusk. Some took photos to keep the beautiful memories. We had a lot of fun and exciment was still lingering on…
