My Weekly Poem

WALT read a poem and analyse the language features of a poem. This will help us think poetically so that we can write a similar poem to share with others.

By Bobby, 10, Ravenshead, Nottinghamshire, UK

Haunted House

The door ran open as I walked towards it.

The floor boards creaked as I walked over them.

I was standing under a hanging dagger with blood

leaping from it.

There was a noise like someone being murdered.

I felt scared.

As I walked up the stairs,

the light sprinted from side to side .

My spine shivered as I heard a footstep.

I walked into the bedroom.

I could near the shower go drip, drip, drip

like blood dripping off someone.

I FELT SCARED!!!!!!!
