Poem:

We all make those small mistakes

We have those little accidents

Something either falls or breaks

But that’s not what the problem is

The problem is without mistakes

We wouldn’t learn about new things

We wouldn’t know how long it takes

To learn about what life can bring

That’s why mistakes are important

We can learn from them straight away

And then when we make another

We will know just what to say

It’s okay to make mistakes

We’ll only get better anyway

It doesn’t matter how long it takes

We will always find a way

Mistakes are made

But it’s okay

Because we all know what to say

It’s okay to make mistakes

We’ll only get better anyway

It doesn’t matter how long it takes

We will always find a way

We wrote a poem on mistakes for writing. Above is my poem. I am happy with the way I wrote it. This poem talked about making mistakes which is okay to do so, because we all will eventually learn from them anyway.

Tercet poem related to Matariki

This morning we learned how to write a Tercet poem and what a Tercet poem is. We had also been tasked to write a Tercet related to Matariki. Above is my poem about the Matariki Stars.

Personification poem

We had to write a poem using personification. Our poem ad to be related to sports. I wrote my personification poem about a soccer ball.

I get kicked around a lot, In the goal’s my favourite spot. Once I go in, I come back out, I’m always getting tossed about. I’d love to stay inside the goal, But I have a special role. I’m one both teams, but I wish that I wasn’t, I want for it to stop, but no, it doesn’t.

Not until a team wins, does my restfulness begin. Sometimes I want to cry, But they don’t know it. No matter how hard I try, I can’t seem to show it.

I’m white with black hexagons, there is only one of me, there aren’t tons. What do you think I am? Can you guess my name. It is very similar to the name of my game.

What Am I?

It’s Spring

It’s spring It’s spring the time of fun

It’s spring, time to play in the sun

We’ll sit down and relax under a tree, by its stud

And make ourselves at home by eating some tasty spuds

We only have a little, we only have a few

but we can just get up and do something new

We can play hop scotch (hop hop hop)

We can play hop scotch and hop until we drop

We will lay down on the grass so green

And stare at all the pretty flowers

The loveliest flowers I’ve ever seen

I could gaze at them for hours

As the sun, from the clouds is emerging

It hits me with its beautiful rays, burning

We can watch some new plants be born

And out of them will come little corn

The skin of it will be very fresh

Hahaha, on the corn, the leaves look like a dress.

It feels so calm, the beautiful air

I think that the weather is also so fair

The sun today is so hot, so warm
You don’t need a raincoat today, there is no storm

As the clouds cover the sun, just as it starts to get warmer

It comes out again peeking its head around the corner

I see a gardener as he heaves

A handful of brown, yellow, red and green leaves.

We look back down at one of the growing plants

It looks like a dancer with a ballerina stance

We should play some netball, who first is gonna shoot

We play our game whilst someone nearby is playing the flute

We go down to the beach, leaving the little sprouts to grow

WOW look at the water, it has a cool flow

It’s spring it’s spring a lot of joy it will bring

My favourite season is (you already know) spring!

This is my work on a poem about spring.
I think that this helped me to learn to use better and more descriptive words in my writing, so that I can improve. I like my choice of words and matter. I also like how the first words and second words in the first part of my poem fit together in the story. I will now use a lot more descriptive and fun rhyming words in my writing, to show that I can improve and learn heaps.
