Forest
Trees, towering Above you
The sparkling Appearance of dewGreen like a cactusNot like a moose

This poem wasn’t as good as most of my poems. It is very short because I couldn’t think of any more to say and that I had to finish it at a very short time. The tool I used is Simile.

DesertSurviving the desert is
Hard work
Searching for a city is
A lot of footwork
Water in the desert
Is very rare
In the desert at night
Will give you a scare
Not many animals are
Living there

This is one of my favorite poems! There are so many rhymes in including a three-line rhyme. Which is why I chose the tool, Rhyme.

Ocean
Bloop, bloop the bubbles of fish
People serve them in a dish
We should sustain
The marine creatures
The school of fish
Don’t have teachers
Ocean’s filled with tons of life
All of them are all wildlife

I used Onomatopoeia for this poem. This poem is sort of about sustainability. Something like protecting the sea or ocean. The picture of the ocean is one of the best pictures I have in this anthology.

Swamp
A swamp is a smelly,
slimy forest
An ugly forest that
has been possessed
I wonder if there are
alligators in there
You stay overnight,
you hug Teddy Bear
Maybe you couldn’t survive the swamp
You’re walking on mud, you shouldn’t stomp!

For me, it was a dark poem due to the picture which makes the swamp look sad. Don’t laugh, but I think I hurt the swamp’s feelings. The tool is Metaphor

Animals

Animals
Carnivore, herbivore, omnivore
Some of them squeak,some of them roar!
From young ones to old ones
For just a few months
When they get older, they start to hunt,
Start to walk, and start to grunt
Some of the animals are
Endangered species
These kind of animals need more peace

Again, this is sort of about sustainability. I really, really love this poem. That’s because I love animals. I chose to put a carnivore and a herbivore in one picture--not really one picture--to make it look like all the animals. The tool I used is Beginnings/Endings.

Reflection
This anthology was fun! But some parts of it were very annoying because I have to keep doing things over and over again.
I think that I did a great job on constructing poems and a presentation related to a theme.
I hope you enjoyed my presentation on “Poems About the World”. Try this at home!
