Descriptive Writing Student Response: Text Type (Structure/Form)

The student describes a remote lake surrounded by a path of gritty rock, tiny white flowers, and black trees with bare branches. At the lake, the water's surface shimmers like jewels under the sun or moon. Among the black trees, long-tailed lizards dart up and down the hollow trunks, seemingly from an ancient time. As the wind picks up, it whistles through the barren trees, which act as a brittle orchestra playing an ever-changing tune in the desolate landscape.

DESCRIPTIVE WRITING

STUDENT RESPONSE

To reach the lake, you have to follow a winding, gritty path until you
come to a cleft in the rock formation. There, you can stand looking down
on an almost-perfect pool of emerald water. If you go at the right time,
as the sun comes up, or the moon is full, the surface seems to ripple like
a queen’s cloak, glittering with jewels.
At the edge of the water, tiny white flowers with nodding heads flutter in
the cool breeze. They stretch around the lake like apparel necklace,
both protective and inviting. Amongst the flowers stand a small number
of black trees with bare, perhaps dead, branches. They create such a
contrast, the limbs of a spirit world, and their absolute stillness sends a
shudder through the watcher.
On the trees, if you wait long enough, you will eventually discern the
slightest of movements: black, thick lizards with long, pink tongues dart
up and down the hollow trunk. Apparently unaware of outside forces,
they seem to have come from some ancient time, as if you are the first
living being to observe them in this scooped-out landscape.
As the wind increases, it begins to whistle through the barren trees, a
high-pitched song of solitude. The trees are its brittle orchestra, the
holes and ridges of the ashy bark playing an ever-changing tune.
