Carnival (descriptive writing)

WOW! The sensation of it, blasting music surrounding me. I feel extreme excitement flowing through everyone at the carnival. My hair has become electric from people running into or past me. The radiant, flashing lights everywhere five me a happy, fun feeling that thrills people all around. The smell created by all the foods from all the different countries, delicious in their own magical way. Candyfloss tastes so furry, warm and pink. It's like a strawberry cloud. I see a ferris wheel. I drag my scared friends up to the ticket stand. All the lights are vivid and every colour of the rainbow is at the carnival. The stars are thousands of shining fireballs in the eternal sky. The air is as cold as ice, and frosty. People slowly start to pack up as the carnival drifts to sleep.

A moment in Time

The radiant lights are like a thousand stars shimmering above me. I look beside me. My best friend’s eyes are blue crystals. We can’t stop staring at the roller coaster in front of us. It goes round and up and down and diagonal like a swirly maze. Now it’s our turn on the roller coaster. I’ve given myself butterflies. I have a feeling of extreme excitement and I’m a little bit scared. We get on. When we move my tummy goes upside down. I hear the screams. The wind is a whirlwind in my ears then the noise gets piercing. I feel my girp stiffen like a python with its prey. Then BOOM I hear a sound like a whip crashing against a cage. It’s time to get off.
