My Poem - Mahara

Hi,Today I will be talking to you about my poem this term we have been focusing on natural disasters, And we have been working on our poems the natural disaster that I have chosen was earth quakes.  What I have enjoyed about making this poem was that I could rhyme and use different figurative language to help me explain earthquakes. the thing that I found challenging was finding rhyming word that relates to the topic.

It shatters,
It shakes, who could know the deadly earthquake?

Crash!, Boom!, Bang! is all you can hear now he is here. The town has buildings that are crumbling down. Look at the ground while it breaks.
 Houses are starting to shatter and shake. People are crying and devastated. The earthquake rolls through the town like a destructive rollercoaster crushing things down. Anything in its path is turning to dust, The earthquake has broken the earth's crust.


The earthquake is angry so angry that he is kicking things down like tall buildings they come smashing to the ground. Leaving people with a frown.  

It is silent once again he’s gone, people are happy, happy at last my heart was beating, beating so fast. I feel Surprised it’s all over now it's time to rebuild the town.  We are going to build the town better than can be.
