Racecar

Speedy quick

Tomato red

Turning wheels

Squeaking stop

Checkered banner

Awesome victory

Kenning

The shower

The shower is a wildlife safari

The nozzle is like a giraffe reaching out for food

The knobs are like hippos, showing their great white teeth

The tub is like a huge piece of land where all the animals and others live,

And the drain, is where my imagination whooshes out of sight.

Extended Metaphor

The Pill

There first time I made a huge fit I tried to quit

But my dad made me take that pill That tastes like dillAnd I screamed 

Although in my head I dreamed that I beamed

And finally that pill is fineAnd now I can dineWithout worryingAnd scurrying 

Away from that pill

I went to the doctorBecause I left my health in my locker

She checked me everywhereShe checked me here and there

She checked my throatAnd said I am going to start to croak 

So she prescribed medicineHopefully it is genuine

Because I hate to take that pillIt gives a chill

There are three days left Now I am very deft 

So I have been taking my Pill That gives me a chill

And it tastes really badSo bad it's sad

It tastes like a mintWith a hint of flint

Couplet

Coke

When I drink coke it sparkles in the bottle

In the car I will step hard on the throttle

The dark brown color

Makes me holler

Hopefully I will not squabble on the cobble
