About Me

I was angry with my friend: I told my wrath, my wrath did end. I was angry with my foe; I told it not, my wrath did grow.

And I water'd it in fears, night & morning with my tears; and I sunned it with my smiles and with soft deceitful wiles.

And it grew both day and night, till it bore an apple bright; and my foe beheld it shine, and he knew that it was mine,

And into my garden stole when the night had veil'd the pole: in the morning glad I see my foe outstretch'd beneath the tree

Dewdrops Dancing Down Daisies

By Paul Mc Cann

Don't delay dawns disarming display .
Dusk demands daylight .
Dewdrops dwell delicately
drawing dazzling delight .
Dewdrops dilute daisies domain.
Distinguished debutantes . Diamonds defray delivered
daylights distilled daisy dance .

Alliteration & Personification

Task on alliteration & Personification

I hope youve enjoyed the poems we studied last week. William Blake and Emily Dickinson are amongst my favourite poets. Lovely lovely.

Now, your tasks. :)

Find 5 examples of alliteration used in poems or phrases as well as 5 examples of personification online (or even better create your own!) and print them out.

We'll share our findings the next time we meet.
