Hmm perhaps something to do with rustling of the tree's and the noises that might make you feel scared but you're reassured because of the man smiling in the moon?

I know the advice that we've often been given is to describe aspects using all 5 senses.

E.g. :

What you could see, hear, touch, smell and taste in the park.

+ Remember similies, metaphors, imagery etc...!

Hope this helps!

Thank you, Sir. But if I hear this advice once more I think I'll crack.

lol... Sorry but my English teacher, Captain Byrne, is so obsessive about this.

Aye, but it doesn't half help to increase the number of words you use ..... for example:

Instead of 'The leaves on the tree rustled in the breeze' you can say ....

'The russet tinted leaves on the magnificent old oak tree rustled gently like tissue paper in the balmy autumn breeze'.

Bingo! Twice as many words in one sentence! I loved English!

Good luck with the homework, bb4eva ...... you've been given some good advice in this thread.
