Begin crafting your description :




He gazed at the  antelope running past as he held tightly on the tree. He inspected the squirrels sleeping nice and                                       comfortably up in the tree, insects eating all of the juicy leaves.

He could hear the antelopes hooves breaking upon the ground. He could hear the insects munching upon the leaves. He liked the sound of the wind whistling in his ears. He noticed  the  sound of a lion roaring 100 metres away.

He could smell the smelly breath of the lion. He could smell the old tree bark. He was smelling the juicy leaves.

He could taste the unpleasant dirt as the wind blew it towards his face.He could taste the bark on the tree. He could taste the spit of the snoring squirrel. He liked the taste of the fresh air blowing towards his mouth.

He did not like the feeling of  the roughness on the tree. He could feel the ground shaking extremely out of control. He felt the spikiness of the grass. He could feel the coldness of the air.
