Simile Poems

3/5/2019

 
Today we are working on simile poems.

Here are some examples of simile poems.

Greater Than That
by Joyce Garacci

Like a bruised, little bird
Too confused to fly,
I'm trapped, in a word,
So confined am I.
A captive, collared lion
Alone in its pen,
I'm pacin' and dyin'
In a manmade den.
For an eagle was not meant
To be locked in a cage,
Its life to be spent
Like a picture on a page.


Before the Storm
by Kelly Roper

The air was heavy like a wet towel that needed to be rung out,
And the thunderheads began to rumble like an angry volcano.
The wind stirred up in fury like a swarm of locusts suddenly taking flight,
And then the heavens opened and drenched the thirsty earth.
​


Berkley
by anonymous

Black as midnight, 
Bad as the devil 
With eyes like pieces of dark chocolate, 
He thinks he’s king of the world, 
My dog Berkley.
He’s very much like a pig 
With his pudgy stomach and all. 
Like a leech, he’s always attached 
To his next meal. 

Even though he’s as bad as the devil, 
Berkley is my best fellow.


Birdsby anonymous

Chirping non-stop, like a machine in the trees, 
Building their nest like little worker bees. 
They sing their songs, like chatter-boxes. 
As regular as alarm clocks, 
Waking people up each day. 
They are silent at night, 
Like snakes advancing on prey.
