SENSORY
EXPERIENCES
11
SIGHT
The full moon rose slowly
over the trees casting eerie
shadows on the campsite. It
gave John the creeps and he
edged closer to the fire. The
same moon rose on the night
the three children went
missing.

12
SOUND
Marco sat alone at the table nearest the door
so he wouldn't miss her. The room was noisy.
The clank of heavy plates drifted from the
kitchen and fought with the steady hum of
couples in conversation. Ice clinked as it
settled in his water glass. He ran his fingers
over the drops of condensation and watched
them make tracks down and onto the
tablecloth. His watch read 9:30. She wasn't
coming

13
TOUCH
The sudden plunge into the
cool water took his breath
away and raised goose bumps
on his arms. Kamir had been
swimming in this pond since
he was a kid. Swirling his
hand in the dark water, it still
held the promise of boyhood
laughter and summer bike
rides.

14
SMELL
"That stinks like rotten meat,"
said Seth, clamping his hand
over his nose. (Clamp was a
stronger word for a stronger
smell.) He staggered back
until he hit the wall. "I'm
going to be sick."

15
TASTE
The sweet butter cream icing
melted on my tongue. The
word delightful came to mind.
I closed my eyes to savor the
richness of the warm spice
cake and knew I would have a
second piece before the end
of the night.
