We have been learning to write a poem about summer, using our senses. We were also focusing on using poetic devices such as similes, metaphors and personification in our poem.

// THAT WAS SUMMER // // The sea is like a champagne bottle. Its like I am watching a fire work display as the bubbles emerge to the seas surface. its like the sea weed is pulling me down to tickle my feet. Do you remember that time when I grabbed my mum to show her my sand castle and before she could say where is it my sand castle had gone it was like my gob went to the bottom of the ocean when I saw that pile of mush that was summer. // // Remember that time when the bacon popped so loudly that it woke you up and your half asleep body flopped down the stairs that was summer. Remember that time when the wild black berries were like a ticking time bomb in your hand and you put them on the car and you watched them turn to goo that was summer. Remember that time when you where writing this poem and you could see the drool marks that was summer. Remember that time when you ate the chocolate cake bit by bit by bit like you would never see anther chocolate cake again that was summer. // // Remember that time when your dad said we could not go to the beach so you sun bathed on the your dads black car and when mum called out LUNCH! It was like you were walking in slow motion up the stairs. //
