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! I can smell the flowers they smell as nice as vanilla. The sausages taste as crispy as chips. And the cicadas are as loud as a screaming baby but some of them sing beautifully like the birds high in the pine trees. The sun is so hot so hot I can’t feel my skin because its so sun burned.

Do you remember the time you took one bite out of your ice block and you got a brain freeze straight away that was summer. Remember the time we went into the spa pool together and I turned on the bubbles and you started to vibrate that was summer. Remember the time a cicada landed on your t-shirt and you screamed as loud as the cicada that was summer. Remember the time we went to the beach and we thought we saw a turtle swimming in the sea but is really a dead bird floating that was summer. Remember the time when my dad was cooking sausages on the bbq and the sausages sprayed oil in your eyes so you screamed so loud that the neighbours complained because it felt like a bee sting that was summer. Remember the time at the beach we went out so fare we couldn’t touch the bottom from like a metier that was summer. Do you remember the time at the beach in the holidays we saw a three metier shark and our neighbours Dad had to rescue people all the way from the boys that was the coolest and funniest summer ever!!!!!!!
