The Orange

I wrote this as a model for my students. Their task was to write about a peak experience within 100 words. I tried to be as concise and cogent as possible.

The Orange

Motoring for days through parched Moroccan desert dunes. Devilish heat, shortage of water driving us crazy. We stop at another garage, expecting nothing. Owner beckons me to his fridge. Inside, a single orange. Smiling, he places it in my hand. Icy-cold. Desperate unpeeling. Explosion of juice on my taste-buds. Aaah!
