Metaphor Poetry

Check out our Metaphor poems...

The goal was to write a metaphor with an explanation. To up level the writing, we tried to make sets of lines rhyme. This was a challenge! But the class worked really hard! There are more to come. Enjoy!

I AM

I am a song, ready to be sung.

I am a guitar, waiting to be strung.

I am a cat, stalking my prey.

I am a ball, bounced everyday.

I am a brick, ready to be placed.

I am an alien from deep outer space.

I am the sun, cheerful and bright.

But I am also the moon, dark as the night.

I am a spark, I light the flame.

I am a beast, ready to be tamed.

I am a tree, standing tall and proud.

I am a building, looked on by clouds.

I Am Mokana

I AM

I am a baby

Craving attention

I am a phone

I like to have connection

I am flowing water

Always wanting to go somewhere

I am a playful dog

I like to breathe fresh air

I am the shimmering moon

Lighting up the dark

I am a blaring fire

There is always a spark

I am a flower

Colourful and light hearted

I am the youngest brother

Bashed and bunted

I am the gleaming sun

Shining bright

I am a creepy doll

I will definitely give you a fright

I am Cole

I AM

I am a sapling

learning to grow.

I am a turtle

rather slow.

I am a race car

racing round the tracks.

I am a wolf

I travel in packs.

I am a needle

Knitting a fleece.

I am a paintbrush

Creating a piece.

I am a dolphin

Playful and kind.

I am a spy glass

I’m hard to find.

I am a storm

I can be tough.

I am a puppy

I can be rough.

I am a sloth

Sometimes lazy.

I’m a carton of milk

I can expire.

I am Ben

I am...

I am a present

Excitement encircles me

I am a builder

Busy as a bee

I am a lion

Roaring with confidence

I am a speaker

Filled with noise and silence

I am GPS

I'll show you the way

I am the sunshine

I’ll Make your day

I am a bird

Living life free

I am a sailor

Love’n  the sea

I am a rocket

Aiming high

I am an athlete

Givin' it a try

I am a gorilla

Strong and tough

I am a chest

I have lots of stuff

I am a sapling

Beginning life

I am a ranger

watching wildlife

I am Rimer
