Describe a public swimming pool on a hot afternoon.
The pool was really crowded. There were lots of people and it was very loud. The water looked nice and it was really hot.
The pool was crowded from edge to edge. Kids cannonballed off the side, a lifeguard's whistle cut through the squealing, and the concrete was hot enough to send everyone hopping back to their towels.
The storm came. The wind was strong. The rain was heavy. The trees moved. We stayed inside.
The storm arrived all at once. Wind bent the gum trees almost sideways, and rain drummed so hard on the tin roof that we had to shout to hear each other. We stayed inside, watching from the window.
The colossal, magnificent, resplendent auditorium was brimming with an immense multitude of exuberant spectators, and my heart was palpitating tremendously.
The hall was full. Somewhere in the third row, a baby coughed, and three hundred people went quiet at once. My heart was thumping so hard I could feel it in my fingers, wrapped around the flute.
