Isnad–try again. These sentences are simplistic lacking any imagery. “The boy moved his eyes with speed”–this is you TELLING me, not SHOWING me.
She felt icicles growing the tip of her organs every step she took.

Yeah, I read that. Tis okay.
Some of these are less than spectacular. The visual one is VERY typical. Snow comes to a million people’s minds when they think of white. Imagery pushes our thinking and connections. Your auditory and gustatory came close. Give it another shot perhaps?
