Adding Detail
It was a stormy day, with fast winds rushing round me. The ground was almost a river and even my raincoat was soaked through. I pulled my hood down tighter as I struggled on. Thunder boomed overhead and my cat clawed me inside my coat. Lightning illuminated the sky, showing off the angry, grey clouds. Glancing behind, me I saw the funnel of extreme wind was gaining. Hopefully, it didn’t catch me.

Around The Corner
The trees swayed in the gentle breeze and ferns tickled the edge of the path. Crunchy gravel formed a line towards the best view I had ever seen.The path dropped steeply down a sheer cliff. Beyond that cliff was paradise. Waterfalls glistening in the sunlight. Small lakes reflected a giant rainbow in the sky. Mud huts decorated with flowers dotted the landscape and wooden bridges formed over tiny streams.

First person Moment
I bumped out of the truck, my leaves scattering beside me. What was happening? Why was I being dumped on the side of the road? Thump! I was dropped into a shallow hole and someone covered my legs with soil. I tried to move but I couldn’t. The truck drove off. Sighing, I looked around me. And stopped. There on the other side of the road was another young tree. He turned his to look at me. Our eyes were so wide, I thought they would pop. We stared at each other for what seemed like forever. It was like there where to invisible beams, shooting out from our eyes and entwining around each other. My arm started to reach across the road and so did his. We were both grinning, and just as we were about to touch, I felt the ground tug me back. No! Those stupid humans had prevented me from reaching the one and only thing I wanted. Love.
