📝Writing- Poetry - Earthquakes!!📝

Tectonic plates slip

BANG!!

Earth’s surface begins to shake

As if the earth had a stomach ache

Along the surface there are cracks

SMACK!!

As the buildings collapse.

Caused by the tectonic plates

An earthquake begins

Destroying everything in its way

While earth starts to shake.

Lives, homes, and belongings is what earthquakes take.

People screaming

AH!!

Buildings falling

Crash!!

Run away before it’s too late

Damage, destruction, and death is what Earthquakes have caused.

Leaving people nowhere to live

Hoping others will give

Anger and sorrow

Not sure of what to do tomorrow

And all you can hear

Is sound of sirens that fill the air.

Earthquakes are dangerous

They cause A LOT of damage

Think quick

Earthquakes can play tricks

Beware

No time to spare.

Up top is my poem, for writing we had to create a poem based on a natural disaster, for this I choose to create a poem based on Earthquakes. Also in our poems we had to include 5 different types of figurative language, I included at least 3 or 4, Alliteration, Simile, Personification, and onomatopeia. I was so excited when I heard that we had to create a poem, I think that next time I could work on adding more figurative language in my poem and to use adjectives in my poem.

I hope you enjoyed and thanks for listening!!
