Exaggeration Poem

Exaggeration poem writing

Exaggeration means claiming something is greater than it really is. For example, if you said “my cat is as big as a house” or “I can run faster than the speed of light,” you would be exaggerating.

To write your own exaggeration poem, you only need to do three things:

1. Pick something to write about.
2. Pick a feature or characteristic of the thing that you are writing about.
3. Exaggerate that characteristic in every way you can think of, making a list as you go.
4. Take your list of ideas and turn them into a poem.

Here are some more tips to help you get started:

• When you write your exaggeration poem, it doesn’t have to rhyme, unless you want it to.
• If you can’t think of a funny ending for your poem, try ending it with the same lines you used at the beginning of the poem.

Good luck writing your own exaggeration poems!

I Ate a Spicy Pepper

I ate a spicy pepper

From my brother on a dare.

The pepper caught my head on fire

And burned off all my hair.

My mouth erupted lava

And my tongue began to melt.

My ears were shooting jets of steam.

At least that’s how they felt.

I ricocheted around the room.

I ran across the ceiling.

I dove right in the freezer

To relieve the burning feeling.

I drank a thousand soda pops

And chewed a ton of ice

To try to stop the scorching

Of that spicy pepper’s spice.

At last, the flames extinguished,

I admitted to my brother,

“That pepper was the best one yet.

May I please have another?”

I’m king Nathan

I’m king Nathan

Strong as king kong

Fast as the speed of light

Smart as a scientist

Flexible as a piece of paper

Skilled like jackejan

Sneaky like a cat

Has Killer hugs

Works with a team

Big appetite

Never screams

Good taste buds

He’s a superstar singer

N.B.A king

A son of a god

Talks to animals  

Hot shot guy

Smile is on 24 7

His muscles are as a big as a horse

He’s broken all his bones

My Creature is a Red-bellied Piranha

Some things I needed to consider about my creature:     What I’d consider about my creature is that it lives in South America rivers, they are 30cm in height. The piranha picks on small fish and they live in groups and they’re meat eaters.

My enclosure has these special features for my pet:        To feed my pet you push the blue button at the back of the fish tank and the blue batin at the back of the tank opens so you can feed without the water coming out.

What I am pleased about: I’m pleased that I got all the materials and it came together nicely and it went according to plan.   I had to plan quit a bit because if the plan had no detail I wouldn’t no how length, width and the height. I was absorbed in P.B.L also I had to persevere to get it all done.

What I have found tricky: What I found tricky was cutting the hole in the top because it wouldn't cut and also it was hard putting the toy on the top of the inside of the tank because it’s not flat.

What I would like to improve: What I’ll like to improve is the amount of sand because I think I did not put enough sand and stones in the tank.
