My war poem

ANZAC
I saw canons firing at the Anzacs as they ran up the beach,
I heard lots of shouting as the lieutenants yelled at us to tell us what to do,
I felt extremely frightened as I tried to dodge the bullets,
I smelt the dusty gun powder drifting through the air,
I could taste the sand as it was flicked up by the soldiers,
I wonder whether I will survive or not.

  1. To me, you explained this really, really well! There were a lot of details, which made it poem really exciting. Did you write any other cool poems?

  2. I think your poem is really good. I can tell you are in battle, even though you never mentioned it. I can also tell you are really scared. I like writing poems and stories. Do you?

  3. Hi Amelia,
    I think your poem about the Anzac was really interesting. Your poem reminded me of the time when my after school teacher asked our class to write a poem about one of our family members in Chinese. It wasn't very hard but it took some time finding rhyming words. Did it take you very long to write that poem?
