“Laura’s Love For dance” Laura lunged , leaped and danced across the floor Laura lifted her long lean legs up in the air Until one day when Laura stayed late she had leapt She had lifted off the floor with those long lean legs But when she came down her little lean ankle did Didn’t line Up right love had languished along With the light, it had became night The very next morning Laura limped on out She said to the doctor I lept and lunged and didn’t land right He said don't worry just a small little laser with fix this right up.

I Just Want to Play A ray of sunlight laid across my face, I decided to play The day faded away so I decided to hit the hay The very next morning the sun was ablaze I had raved all day about wanting to play But my mother said no it is way to hot You must stay away I raged all day about not being allowed to play Until the next day when the sun was not so blaze I blurted a hooray now I can play I ran and played that day until the day faded away And it was time to hit the hay

Just a couple bells from Freedom Ding,Ding ,Ding The ringing of the bell Bam! The clatter of the people walking School has just begun what fun Click,click ,click the sound of the clock ticking Ring Ring Ring finally off third period

Crash the glass beaker in the science room broke Brinng Brinng Brinng the sound I dread I forgot to silence my phone Clang Clang Clang The break bell finally The clattering of my braclet spread through the hall as the kids rushed out

Ring Ring Ring finally of to art 4th period is over Splat all the paint spilled Off to engineering Brrrum Brrrum finished cutting my solar racer Bang Bang Bang of to lunch finally

Happiness in the Air When I receive a smile, I get this funny feeling that only lasts a while. A real smile reaches ear to ear. It tastes like candy filled with joy and love. A note of music that makes me want to dance. When I return a smile, it only lasts a while. It gets my spirits up just to smile back. You can smell a smile from a mile away like happiness in the air.

The Sea

I pull up on the beach I walk on through into the sea The sea welcomes me I swim on through into the sea I see the reef they truly welcomed me I swim on over to the coral reef My snorkel blows I swim on back up to the beach The sand sticks to my feet The waves keep crashing I begin to leave the sea must really like me



Rhyme aabbccddeeff

Dance all night I just want to dance I really want to prance I got in my straddle I moved my legs and they made a raddle I Hit a big leap I was so tired I wanted to go to sleep I want to dance all night The moon was shining bright



Simile 10 lines

This is Who I Am I Love to dance and when I grow up I want to be a professional dancer I love to tumble I hate the chalk rubbing screeching noise I love boating and all water activities like water skiing , tubing and wakeboarding I love to snorkel I dance at Miami Dance Project I hate spinach



Tone 3 stanza love poem�1st stanza positive 2nd stanza negative 3rd neutral My brother, Griffin Cares for me Stands up for me Hangs out with me Puts me first Only he can bully me Always tries his best to succeed He’s a big huge scary machine He towers over me at least by a foot He yells and he smells He is like a giant compared to me He is strong and overpowers me all the time When he is made it is scary Long and lean Athletic , loves basketball Blonde blue eyes 6ft in tall Loves fishing Never gives up always tries again



Mood Scene poem 4 devices we have used Optimistic and pessimistic

Optimistic My favorite song will play I am so gonna win the dance off I am gonna rock this party We will dance all night I will look stunning I will eat the cake with confidence I will walk like a model never to fall I will be the life of her party

Pessimistic Head down I hate this song My song will never play I am definitely not going to dance I look terrible compared to everyone I am not gonna win this dance off I will totally trip and fall I will probably fall on the cake I will ruin the party I shouldn't even be here



Hyperbole Write a ten line poem about homework that contains at least 3 hyperboles

Opened up my Mac, a million open tabs All just for homework My gosh I have a lot How oh how am I going to finish this all My math was so confusing I tried a billion times but each time I tried I kept on getting it wrong I had to study for history but that was just a mess I started to get hungry in the middle of the persian war so I got a little snack but that did satisfy me I could have eaten a horse but I settled for some steak I never finished studying for my history test Gosh oh gosh my life is just a mess



Allusion…... It’s a Lake Day Out on the lake Riding the Kawasaki Tubing with friends It’s a lake day The rush of water blast in my face As I speed through the water on only a skii We burn in the sun who really cares We just keep on swimming It is a lake day We fly off the tube with a gasp of air That whip was fun but really a scare We get back up only to do it again This time we stay on and glide through the air We were flying almost 5 ft above the water I can’t wait for tomorrow This was a lake day



Sonnet 12

My heart beats. Payest attention. Listen. Maketh me your orchestra when down low. If I was an old book, would though pardon To read me? My back needs a scratch. Would thou Ease my itch? Forgiveth me but when last Read, my pages were torn. If I hold a Grudge will thou allow me to ditch the past? If only I find some music to play, To express my eternal love for you.. If I was in an old band playing basoon, And thou supportest me,I’d not feel blue. If jailed for love, shall I blare a loud tune? Thou must carry me inside’st thy head To keep our romance alive untill dead.
