My metaphor story

Starter

The giant fan whirred furiously. He pulled on the flying jacket, placed the goggles onto his head, and gripped the cardboard box for dear life. This was to be another of his incredible adventures, and he couldn’t wait to find out where it would take him…

My story Yellow = Metaphors

“Yeah this is amazing.” shouted Luca. “I wonder where I’m going?” “Let’s get out of here.” In another world. “I wonder where I am.” wondered Luca. “Wait what’s that down there.” “IT’S A DRAGON!!!” “I’ve always wanted to keep a dragon.” “I’ll go see what type it is.” Then when he got closer the dragon let out a Roar and that scared Luca off. “Well I won’t get that type of dragon.” Then rain started pouring down hard on his head. “The rain are stones.” shouted Luca. “I’ll go find a cave.” After searching and searching for a nice warm cave. “Finally I found one.” He walked in and made himself comfy. Then he heard a grunt. It was a baby dragon, and it was a Galaxy dragon. It was so cute. Then he walked up to the little dragon and scratched behind her ear. She liked Luca very much. Then they went home and we were two peas in a pod. He named her Moon. Then she was an adult and she had cute babies. They were a big happy family. 

My Poetry Writing

My Poetry

  I don’t wanna go to school Mum

I could stay at home with you

We could go to the park

What other things can we do?

I will be quiet like a post

Are we going to the pool

No wait we’re not doing that

Oh no we’re going to school!

They had always been together, for as long as he could remember. They had always been the best of friends. She had taught him everything he knew, relentlessly preparing him for life in the outside world..

This was the moment they had both been waiting for...

My story Yellow = Similes

I felt a deep sorrow in my heart. I’ve never wanted to leave Lyla alone in the city. We were already a few days from the city. I feel like I’m as pale as death right now. I think she is taking me back to my tower or a special place in the grasslands. “Okay Jasper.” said Lyla. “We only have a few more days left.” “We should rest now it is really late.” “Yes I’m really tired of walking. I need rest.” “Good night Jasper.” “Good night Lyla.” . . . . . . . “Well good morning Lyla.” I licked her face to wake her up from her deep sleep. Then we kept on walking and walking for ages and it felt like we were walking for a month of Sundays. When we arrived to the grasslands, I saw a tower of giraffes. It must be my tower! I started running toward them like I was a bee attracted to a flower. Then I saw one giraffe stand out from the rest, it was my mother! She started running towards me too like we were magnets. We hugged each other so tightly we nearly lost our breath. Then I turned around and saw Lyla crying uncontrollably. She was about to turn around and leave when I ran towards her. We hugged and hugged for as long as a lifetime. “I love you Jasper.” said Lyla in a happy-sad voice. “You know that right?” Yes Lyla I know that and I will never ever forget that. “Goodbye Jasper.” said Lyla. Goodbye Lyla. Then she turned around and started walking towards the city. After a millennium of Sundays I still remember Lyla and her hair as black as coal. Her eyes as beautiful as the ocean, her smile like a ray of sunshine. I will never forget those vivid things about Lyla. Then one day I asked my Mum if I could go on an adventure she said yes. I was as happy as a child on Christmas day. I might see Lyla again!
