Hi everyone welcome back to my blog today I am going to be talking about my writing. For writing I had to write a poem about culture or a tradition or a holiday and I chose to write about a holiday. Because every year at the start of the year in the holidays we go to Kaiteriteri so my poem is about Kaiteriteri. We had to choose a type of poem there was... Haiku, limerick, using comparisons in poetry and cinquain and I did using comparisons in poetry which is using metaphors and similes.
Kaiteriteri
It was as hot as the sun on a summer day,
The sand was like shimmering gold,
The water was as cold as a fridge,
But once you get used to it, it’s as warm as a fuzzy blanket.
Have you used any of this type of poetry?

ReplyDeleteYou have done an amazing job on your poetry!
I have never written a comparisons poem before, but it looks like such a fun poem to write.
All of the metaphors and similes you used really made me feel as though I was lying on the beach in Kaiteriteri, getting ready to hop into the water!
I quite liked the way you mentioned that the sand was like shimmering gold. This was such an excellent simile to use because everytime I go to the beach, I think the exact same thing!
You mentioned that you go on holiday to Kaiteriteri at the beginning of each year. What kinds of things do you do there?
