Free Verse - Does Anyone Care?

Yet another day passes,
but still no food.
My body gets weaker,
my stomach is empty.

My belly becomes bloated,
I have no energy.
People ignore me,
my stomach is still empty.

My body is fragile,
with bones that easily break.
The pain gets worse,
my stomach is still empty.

Time slowly passes,
each minute in agony.
I close my eyes for the last time,
because my stomach is still empty.

Metaphor - Clowning Around

My friend is a clown.
She’s tall with big feet,
and certainly looks the part.
She makes hilarious jokes,
and laughs at them too.
Everyone believes she’s an idiot,
always embarrassing herself.
But she doesn’t care what people think,
as she clowns about.
She enjoys being the centre of attention,
and is always fun to be around.

Simile - Conserve It, or Loose It

The flowers are like an outsider,
lonesome and afraid.
The trees are like a new born baby,
defenceless against us humans.
The clouds are like the morning fog,
thick and hard to see through.
The bush is like an old lady,
shrivelled from old age.

But very soon this could all change,
as we humans are like sin,
dangerous and harmful.
To help conserve our environment,
put you rubbish in the bin.
