So I suppose here is the result of the crazy blender, in a poem...
Where The Wind Goes
When the wind is not in the clouds,
And comes down into the human crowds.
I wonder to myself "oh where does it go?"
The answer is here, there, and all over the show.
It roars in the chasms and in the rifts,
And whips into the caves on the cliffs.
It whispers gently by the seaside,
And follows you with every stride.
It tickles you in the flowery meadows,
And plays with your hair as it snows.
It whistles along the shallow creeks,
And lives in the mountains where it shrieks.
It's dense and humid in the Peruvian jungles,
And swift in Antarctica where heat it bungles.
"But what would we do without wind?" I ponder
What would we do if it did not wander?
If it would prefer to stay up in the clouds,
Away from the many human crowds.
Hi Liana
ReplyDeleteYour 'crazy blender' of a brain has produced another superb poem!
Your use of personification in this poem is really effective, giving the wind human qualities with each verb, e.g. tickles, whispers, whistles...Very clever.
I like the connection you have made between the way your reading material shapes your language and vocabulary as a writer. Certainly reading a variety of genres adds richness to your writing and increases your word power!
Well done

Hi Mrs Bennett,
DeleteHaha, thank you.
I don't exactly know where my 'crazy blender of a brain' came up with the idea of wind but I just figured I'd roll with it. I do always like listening to poems with rhyming, especially ones like Dr Seuss where all the rhyming is a bit insane yet cleverly put together.
Thank you once again...
