First Poems

As colourful as a rainbow.
As sweet as some sugar.
As chewy as some chewing gum
As nice as flowers

As sweet as an apple
As pretty as a flower in a garden
As soft as a feather floating to the ground
Helping nature grow through the air

As great as when you are born
As hard as a brown tree
As filthy as a bin!

When I went out for a walk one day
My mummy said, Don’t go away
So I went out in the breeze
Looking up at the birds in the trees
Singing so cheerfully to themselves
Dancing around like little elves
Then once the birds had fluttered away
I carried on my walk today

As cosy as hot beans,
As tasty as a cake,
As sticky as a bowl of porridge,
As sweet as a baby’s smile!

As pretty as a chocolate shop,
As curly as a brown shell,
As spicy as black pepper,
As hot as the burning sun,
As crunchy as sand,
As messy as the rubbish bin!

As slippery as water snakes,
As wriggly as garden worms,
As rough as old rope,
As juicy as ripe tomatoes!

As stinky as old socks,
As sticky as raspberry jam,
As slimy as green seaside rocks,
As crumbly as gone off ham!

As slithery as wriggling worms
As bendy as an old string
As soft as a ladybird’s wings
As curly as a snail’s shell
As hot as the desert sand.

As squelchy as mud,
As salty as the wild sea,
As stick as a rose bud,
As warming as a hot cup of tea!
