The Tomb of King Tutankamen


The air is musty and old. Treasure sparkles in the gleam of my torch.
Nothing moves. Nothing speaks, as if the world never has been.
A coffin is in front of me! I shiver with excitement, and remove the lid.
Inside are the most beautiful treasures I have ever seen, from a
four-thousand-y
ear-old scroll to a sapphire crocodile. Amidst
these riches is something, if possible, more beautiful than them all.

There in all his splendor lies King Tutankamen himself!

  1. Henry Jones has nothing on you!!! I like the descriptive words. Good paragraph, Jess! You might consider either taking out the extra spaces or making them double-spaced to make it easier to read.
