Walk Through the Forest

Close your eyes and visualize a forest. We are going to walk through the forest. Be aware of the sights, the sounds, the smells, the touch, and even the tastes.......everything around you. I will tell you what you need to write. Use complete sentences and keep writing until I move you to the next level. Use as much detail as possible. Do not worry about anything but writing at this point. Keep the word LIFE in mind as you write.

3. Soon you spot a cup under a tree. Describe the cup.
