The room was vast and echoing, and the colossal ceiling was vaulted, which made it look like it was built and inhabited by beings unhuman. The windows were lofty; they had arches at the very peaks that made them look like a hole through which the eye of the sun peered, casting light of red and gold. The floor was oak, but by the corners, the light did not reach, possibly disguising pitfalls. Curtains hung at the dreary windows. The furniture in the room looked like ramparts to keep out invaders.
A school assignment:
Take this mediocre descriptive paragraph
And transform it into the beginning of a mystery.
I laughed in delight, reading what my young teen wrote,
And went about my day
Happy to be in the company of such a creative.
Wow! That's quite a paragraph! :)
