Touch

Smooth

Silky

Coarse

Slippery

I touch something as smooth as a glass

The fine, strong, soft fibre from the silkworm

The coarse surface of sandpaper

The surface of an icy area

 

Sharp

Sticky

Crisp

Gritty

I touch something as sharp as a razor

The sticky substance of crazy glue

The brittle, breaking, crisp pastry

Sandstones like millstones so gritty

 

Rough

Grainy

Damp

Slimy

I touch something as rough as steel wool

White sand as grainy as rice

The dampness of an overcast weather

The slime from an underground creature

 

Cold

Soggy

Hot

Lumpy

I touch something as cold as inside of a freezer

The wet softness of a soggy sponge

The lump like a bump on my body

The hotness from a burning tree

 

Hard

Pulpy

Dry

Spongy

I touch something as hard as iron or steel

The soft, moist pulpy inside of a fruit

As dry as a desert that you may see

Soft and springy a sponge so spongy

Moist

Velvety

Tender

Feathery

I touch something as moist as wet tissue

The velvety fur of an anther

The tender tears from a crying woman

The feathery structure with fine strands

 

Jagged

Prickly

I touch and

They touch me
