The order in a description is the natural order, in which various parts of an object or scene appear before you. You may describe your scene from left to right, foreground to background, top to bottom. You may also go from picture to picture, in whatever order you think will be most effective. The use of connecting words and phrases. Descriptive essays also contain a description will help the reader to follow you. The following words and phrases will prove useful in making clear to the reader the location of each thing you are describing.

Nearby, opposite to, adjacent to, on my left, on my right, on the opposite side, at a distance, above, beyond, below, etc.

You can develop your descriptive power every day. Examine your surroundings, close your eyes and listen to the sounds around you–chattering of children, twittering of birds, honking of horns, etc. Examine the sensation produced by your surroundings–the bite of a cold wind, the warmth of the Sun, the tang of the salty air. Examine those features that enable you to identify your surroundings with your eyes closed–sounds, smells, tastes and sights of various objects.
