in addition to the words brood‚ huge‚ and clifted‚ give the first line a primal feel‚ the beginning of the poem is like the beginning of the earth in this way.

Descriptive Place Coursework Sunset Beach As I lay down onto the golden grains of sand‚ I looked up to the vibrant yet soothing streaks of colour that had filled the canvas of the sky. There were strokes of pink and orange that resembled the soft‚ supple skin of a perfectly ripened peach.
