Metaphor Rosie Baby Kristen W.
Baby's cheeks are rosy red And skin as soft as a petal. But their screams can be sharp As the horns on a steam. They grow old and weather away. This is a very precious stage From a seed to a living beauty. They can be lovable and bring joy.

Parody Mary and her Lamb Unknown
Mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb, Mary had a little lamb, but now that lamb is dead. So Mary takes the lamb to school, lamb to school, So Mary the lamb to school, between to hunks of bread!
Hyperbole Eternity Unknown
We were waiting in line For our favorite book. My friend beside me Waiting for the same book. I as inpatient as she. She as impatient as me. It only took us five minutes But it seemed like an eternity.
Alliteration Big Bad Ben Unknown
In the playground he pushes, pinches, and pulls people, He's always naughty and nasty-not to nice to know He bounces boys back and forth And burps and belches at bell-time!
Simile Untitled Anonymous
The bonfire flames lick and flicker and hiss Like Tongues of ravenous wolves Like A tigers crouch and leaps Like Bright serpents with venomous fangs.
