For Week 2 of Term Four, I did acrostic poems for poetry. We did our poem on fireworks. We made a plan with ideas and researched words that started with the letters of fireworks. An acrostic poem is when a word (say for example ‘fireworks’) is written vertically and there’s a sentence or describing words about fireworks from each letter of the word ‘fireworks’. There are many different ways of the acrostic poem like the word ‘fireworks at the end or in the middle or in the beginning and end!

Here is my acrostic poem!

Fuming illuminations igniting

In the sky were colourful hues of white and emerald green

Raining lights are crackles pouring down

Everyone cheered brightly and happily

Whirls of navy blue across the starry night

Over the pure black stratosphere was millions of stars

Rumbling in the skies

Kicks of ruby red varieties

Smokey tang of a metallic scent hit my nostrils, inhaling the scent
