Creative Writing

English 

In English we are being introduced to creative writing. We are learning what it is all about. Our teacher gave us 6 task to complete all about creative writing.  Here are 3 task that I have done. 

Haiku

1. Searching for sun shine 

Clouds kissed with a spark of light 

A warm breeze at night  

2. Feels like the arctic 

Blankets warped over my head

Why all cold and wet?

3. Coloured leaves dancing

Trees becoming bare naked 

A hint of cool breeze

4. Petals unfolding 

Sun shining, flowers blooming 

Gardens to be done 

Sensory Language  

Upon entering the grocery store, I headed directly to the sweets, where I spotted the chocolate. As I gently placed the chocolate bar in my rusty shopping cart, I caught a whiff of the sweet sweet caramel, I couldn't resist, so I added it to my cart. While heading to the checkout, I smelled the stench of seafood, which made my appetite disappear. As I pushed my cart to the check out line, I heard the laughter of a family getting groceries. As I headed to the car I couldn't help it but open the chocolate bar it was calling my name, I just had to put a piece in my mouth. 

  What are metaphors and similes? 

A metaphor is a figure of speech that describes two things that are not alike and replaces the word with another word.  The purpose of a metaphor is to paint a picture for the reader. 

Metaphor examples. 

He was like the flash in his 100 meter sprint. 

He was as tall as Burj Khalifa. 

A simile is a figure of speech that compares two things. A simile uses the word like or as. The purpose of a simile is to paint a picture and give an example. 

Simile examples

At dinner he eats like a pig. 

Her eyes are like sky.
