Trees disappear
Madagascar is bleeding
Make a change now
Leaf – loser
Tree – taker
Branch-breaker
Blood-maker
Life-taker
Animal-killer
Trees
Spreading across
Animals losing homes
You can still make a change
So join
Did you know
Everyone should be involved
Forests are dying
Overly disappointing
Really as if no one cares
Every tree matters
So are we going to stop
Trees are what we need to live
And we need to do something about it
Trees waving until they get cut down
It’s killing our world
Of burnt ashes
Need trees to survive, you need to start caring before it’s too late
Never ignore the fact this is happening
Every time trees get cut down
Everything is disappearing and we don’t want that
Dead is rising to the point where it’s too much
See, forests needs to live
Time is running out but you can still do something about it
On the trees where animals live are now gone
So join the army to stop this
To end all of this and continue on living
Own the victory of fighting and joining the army
People will join and you can to.
Super poetry Elise and I particularly love your acrostic poem. It reads like a chant to change the world- very well done. For each poem, can you make sure you are punctuating these with a comma at the end of each line and a full stop at the end of the verse. Also go back through your cinquian poem, making sure you follow the rules for syllables in each line.
As an uplevelling target, could you add some more lines to your kenning poem, but make these alliterations as well?
