Make a List of Things in Your Room

For our first meeting, Creative Writing Club members wrote lists of things in our bedrooms as ways of introducing ourselves.
Eyman's list...

one white standing desk

one black table that is used as a desk
a leather chair
a laptop computer and a desktop computer
an orange table lamp
a small wooden jewelry box with little porcelain drawers
a pile of white cords
a rough rug
a king-size bed with a white bedspread and little blue and green flowers on it
a calendar of old Italian movie posters above the desk
a footstool with cushions
a red Chinese stuffed animal that looks like a cat, one head on both ends
a pile of books
an open magazine
a ceramic pencil cup that my son painted
two red shelves lined with books
some Italian textbooks
some English books
a desert rose
a mirror

My guitar leaning on my bed

by Al-Hanoof Mahzim

A piano that has been ignored for a year on top of my closet.
Books nearly organized in the bookshelf.
Samsung smart TV that keeps switching itself off whenever it feels like it.
My sister's messy bed that she scribbled all over.
Boxed slime everywhere from my siblings creations.
Abaya hanging on the door hook.
Messy closet.
Ice cold water by my bed.
Sports shoes on two shelves in the shoe closet, others on the lower shelves.
