Goodbye Old School Hello New School

For literacy the past week we have been doing a Te Manu Tukutuku poem. In our poem we had to add our five senses. Our five senses are see, smell, hear, touch and what we feel like emotionally. We also had to add some similes and alliteration. This is my poem.

Goodbye Old School Hello New School

Then I felt trapped like a dog in a kennel, now I feel free like a bird soaring high through the sky.

Then I felt puzzled like a gorilla in a cage, now I feel welcome like a cat on a couch.

Then I heard the ringing of the bell like an obnoxious christmas tune , now I hear the song Happy by Pharrell Williams, such a better tune.

Then I saw Smiler Sam, now instead I see Wonder Weka.

Then I saw lots of grass like an overgrown jungle, now I see a scooter track… here come lots of trouble.

Then I smelt dust like an old abandoned house, now I smell the fresh smell like a growing daisy.

Then I felt the ground all bumpy like the mountains, now smooth and hard like a straight open road.

I feel so lucky to be at this magical magnificent marvelous school.
