How to start a composition?
For descriptive I started like this:(Question was the scene out of  bedroom window)[2015] Who wouldn't like to view snow- capped mountains which surround a verdant Valley and a lake ? The serene environment and the dulect sounds coming from the valley allure people from all over the country to Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh. This divine sight cannot be seen in a city where the environment exhibits busy streets and smoke-filled air. I consider myself fortunate to view this heavenly sight through my window!


For  narrative - I have no idea. Maybe citing the environment and the surroundings? Any tips here?

He is destined ------- the bar
Judging by the diamonds she is wearing,she appears well ---------
Let us partake ------- a meal before we start
------ my word he is a gentleman.
He was ----- the brink of ruin
