First Year 5 Poetry Writing

I asked the little boy who cannot see,
"What is colour like?"

Maya
Red is like a raging fire
Tearing down the trees.
Yellow is like the heat that hits your face
On a hot day.
Green is like the unheard secrets
That the forest's trees whisper back to you.
Blue is the sound of waves
Crashing on the rocks.
Purple is when you sit at the window
Listening to the thunder.
White is like the thoughts rushing through your head
One by one.



Arya
Green is the colour of slimy seaweed
Lurking at the bottom of the ocean.
Blue is the colour of waterfalls
Rushing down the mountains.
Brown is the colour of wood
Being chopped at the lumber mill.
Black is the colour of a cat
Wandering through alleyways at midnight.
Orange is the colour of fireworks
Bursting in the sky.



Maniah
Red is like a raging fire
Burning down homes and nature.
Blue is like a calm river
Flowing through the mountains.
Green is the colour of the forest
Closing in on me.
Yellow is the hot blazing sun.
Purple is a storm rushing through cities.
