Burravoe Primary School

We  have learned about Alliteration. When using alliteration all the first letters are the same letter in the sentance.

Here is my Alliteration Poem.

Accrostic poems have a word written down the side of  them. Each letter of  word written at the side is the first letter of the line. Here is My Accrostic Poem, it’s called Odd Day.

Octopuses are flying about the room.

Dolphins bark as they play tag.

Dragons play cards in the Jacuzzi.
 

Dancing parrots play football.

Armadillos cheer on the parrots.

You really have no idea what happens on an odd day.

We are entering the Shetland Young Writer competition. It is in Shetland and you can enter a story, a poem or a peice of writing in Shetland dilect. We are all doing poems because we have been doing them this term with Miss Anderson.  I have written a Haiku. It is Japanese and it has to have 5 beats for the first line and 7 for the middle line and 5 again for the last line {it has 3 lines in the whole poem}.

Puppies are awesome

 Puppies are cute and playful

 My one is a Lab

Hairy Blair Limerick

There once was a boy called Blair

He owned a lot of hair

It was set on fire

Next to the byre

Because of some faulty software

This is my limerick from when we were doing about Limericks in language! A limerick has to have 3 beats in the top line and the second line , the next 2 lines have to have 2 beats and the last line has to have 3 beats! The top 2 lines have to rhyme with each other, the next two have to rhyme with each other and the last line has to rhyme with the first line!

Random is good

And so is food

Now eat a pie

Don’t go and cry

Orcadians in your house

Mustard all over a mouse

By Brydon

This is an acrostic poem I entered to the Shetland young writers competition. Acrostic is when there is a word down the side and each line begins with the letter.
