ANGER METAPHOR POEMS

Check out this AMAZING writing from these AMAZING Room 4 kids...
We have been learning about 'The Red Beast' in class and about metaphors. So we put them together and look what we can do...


Smashing feet hitting the ground
like I was running.
Big, loud voices like somebody was screaming
Out pops the beast
Kicking
Spitting
Trying to get his own way
Smash
Crash
Throwing things across the ground.

By GonMat
The heat
travels through your body
slowly and slowly 
it gets to the top.
You turn red
suddenly you explode with fire
bursting out of your red steaming body
            You sting people                
                           You scream and spit at them
Finally your RED BEAST 
is AWAKENED

by MukAah



You know that feeling
You're a bomb
ready to go off
you're just about to blow
something happens
you're a gonna

You get louder and louder
you're the loudest you have ever been
you reach the point
where you can't get any louder.

Suddenly...
screaming
hitting
kicking
spitting

Pure silence.

Everything pauses.

by TaiSat

A volcano squeezes
its fists a tight body of fire inside
can’t wait to explode
“caboooom”.
Fire bursting out
in the beautiful world.
People screaming
Volcano laughing
“ha ha ha”.

By TepMou

The best has come
Arisen from his slumber.
Hurting, scaring everyone in his path
All he sees is darkness,
All he feels is rage.
His eyes and ears squeeze into ants
His mouth a hurtful giant.
A set off bomb.
a missile he explodes.
The beast is gone.

by OveJac


A bear can get angry and can stop with bubble wrap and a drink
It destroys everything and it has a loud noisy sound.
It can be grumpy like hurt people 
and it has small eyes, small ears and a big mouth.
It can be a volcano, it's evil and hot and it says "hahahaha"
It can ruin a house and hurt people.

by CheAli


The Devil
rising from its lair 
raging
his flames across his face
Growing curious of what's around him
SMASH
CRASH
KICKING
YELLING
"untamed?"
Spreading
Swinging his hands
unaware of what he is doing
Destroying everything in his path
his flames burn down to room
getting darker
more silent
flames sinking
into the ground
the Devil is now sleeping
for not.

By MatEve

The Devil rising from
its home land...
The Nether.
Looking for pain to feed on,
and...
Rage bleeding with in his head.
Snapping furiously at its terrified victims,
eyes ripping out of their sockets.
Enough energy to power the earth.
All happens so swiftly...
The Devil falls into a deep sleep
Until is awakes...
Again.

by FraOll



The vampire has awakened
he is ready to bite
his big red eys are coloured like blood
scary sounds fill the room
Roar
Grrr
I dont know what to do
my heart pumping
as he gets closer closer
he starts to creep 
crawl
I hear footsteps
It's coming
Closer closer
Boo!

by AshSar

ANGER
It travels through your body as fast as it can go
Faster faster beating hard, until

the lid flips 
the volcano erupts
lava come flying out.

The Red Beast chaarges out and uses its mouth and its arms
for slapping, hitting, screaming and swearing

Until the Red best is trapped and has calmed down. 
by YouMic

Anger is like a snake that bites people.
Snakes grow bigger.
People are scared of snakes
When a snake bites you, the snakes thinks it is being funny
But for people, they think that it is not funny.

YouMIc the fabulous writer STRIKES AGAIN!!

This is a piece of writing that YouMic crafted for the Altrusa writing competition.  Unfortunately we missed the deadline, but simply had to share this amazing piece.

The theme was 'When I saw it my life changed forever..."


PETRA 
When I saw it my life changed forever.  This was the day I’d waited for, for so long.  Massive walls towered above me, orange and red cliffs glowing as we journeyed under them.  Wandering between steep sharp rocks like the blade of a knights sword.   And then, after what seemed like hours I turned the final corner.  There in front of me was a huge gigantic building.  Enormous columns, stunning statues shimmering orange in the afternoon sun.  Beautiful carvings and patterns from thousands of years ago.  Dust was in my face and mouth was dry but I didn’t care.  This was amazing.  In fact it was the most amazing thing I had ever seen.  The magnificent Treasury of Petra.
