PoetryLet’s look at poetry!
I wondered lonely as a cloud that floats on high over vail and hill when all at once I saw a crowd a host of golden daffodils beside the lake, beneath the trees fluttering and dancing in the breeze
On the ning, nang, nongWhere the cows go bong
And the monkeys all say boo!There’s a nong nang ning
All the trees go pingAnd the teapots jibber, jabber ju
‘Is there anybody there?’ said the traveller,
knocking on the moonlit door as his horse in the
forest tramped the grasses of the forests
ferny floor.

The Magic Box by Kit WrightI will put in the box
the swish of a silk sari on a summer night,
fire from the nostrils of a Chinese dragon,
the tip of a tongue touching a tooth.
I will put in the box
a snowman with a rumbling belly
a sip of the bluest water from Lake Lucerene,
a leaping spark from an electric fish.
I will put into the box
three violet wishes spoken in Gujarati,
the last joke of an ancient uncle,
and the first smile of a baby.
I will put into the box
a fifth season and a black sun,
a cowboy on a broomstick
and a witch on a white horse.
My box is fashioned from ice and gold and steel,
with stars on the lid and secrets in the corners.
Its hinges are the toe joints of dinosaurs.
I shall surf in my box on
the great high-rolling breakers of the wild Atlantic,
then wash ashore on a yellow beach
the colour of the sun
Read me!

Your Turn:
High light the simile in this verse
The rumble of thunder on a stormy night
Delicate blades of grass as green as an ogre
The tip of a fin from a fearsome great white shark
High light the metaphor in this verse
I will put into the box
The 14th month and an eighth day of the week
The moon which is a blue balloon
And a beautiful ogre with silky hair
Which line in this verse contains example of onomatopoeia?
I shall race in my box
I will zoom dangerously around the track
Twisting and turning around the corners,
At a thousand miles per hour.
