The Sun

It’s there all day, then it goes away.

Where is it?

What does it do?

What does it remind you of?

It’s in the sky…way up high.

It gives us light and heat.

What do we know about the sun?

A ball, an orange, a sphere.

Things to consider to help you to write a poem about the sun.

By Angie Gore Norwood Primary Southport

So we could say…

The Sun

Sounds like…

It looks … round,

like a pound.

Makes me feel…hot, quite a lot.

Stuck for ideas for rhymes?

The Sun

It’s like a shining sphere…

It’s like a gleaming globe…

It’s like a bright golden bauble…

It’s like a glistening globule…

Describe it…

The Sun

It smiles down on us as it wraps its warmth around us.

It bursts into life so very bright.

It pushes back the night and gives us light.

Tell me what it does…

The Sun

It’s like a shining shimmering sphere, up high in the sky.

It slides down to the horizon, at the end of the day, until it’s time for it to go away.

It’s like a gleaming, glowing golden globe.

Stuck for ideas, try these

The SunIt’s like a shining shimmering sphere,

floating up high in the sky.

It slides towards the horizon as it moves on it’s way through the day.

First a few rays, cutting through the haze, then it bursts into view to warm me and you.

Slowly blinking, then sinking, it fades, melts away.Don’t worry or fret, it’s not over yet.It returns not long after the moon and that’s fairly soon.

Think of your theme…

The sea…

Stormy, angry, crashing waves, sea serpents, salty smell, cold, out crops of rocks, danger.

What can you see, hear, touch, smell?

Or…

Gentle lapping waves, mermaids, dolphins playing games, fresh summer breeze, warm, peaceful, calm.

Think of your theme…

Forest..

Green, dark, damp, cold, scary, strange noises, mythical creatures.

What can you see, hear, touch, smell?

Shafts of light peeking through the trees, warmth, tame friendly creatures, paths of sweet smelling petals leading to…

Or…
