Colour PoemColour poems are poems about your favourite
colour. You express your feelings about one colour by comparing them to other things or listing nouns that are that colour or that remind you of that colour.
A colour poem can look like this:Colour looks like…Colour smells like…Colour feels like…Colour sounds like…Colour tastes like…

Orange is feeling in your stomach after an orange soda quenched your thirst. Orange is the sun after a summer day. Orange is the sound of a field filled with dandelions blowing in the wind. Orange is the taste of a pizza that just came out of the oven. Orange is the sound of a busy bumblebee. Orange is the taste of cold glass of orange juice. Orange is the feeling inside you when you accomplish something. Orange is the sound of a tomato plant growing. Orange is the color of a carrot that just popped out of the ground. Orange is the smell of a Tiger-Lily petal. Orange is the feeling after a baby smiles. Orange is the color of a brown beaver's incisor. Orange is the smell of a late July day. Orange is the feeling of a puppy's fur. Orange is the color of peach marmalade on a side of toast. Orange is the sound of a canoe paddling through shallow water. And orange is a color that is safe and alive.

Found PoemsFound poems take existing texts and
refashion them, reorder them, and present them as poems.
The literary equivalent of a collage, found poetry is often made from newspaper articles, street signs, graffiti, speeches, letters, or even other poems.
![Page 13: What Is Poetry? What is poetry?, you say As you fix my eyes with yours of blue. What is poetry!.... You ask me that? Poetry... It is you! -Gustavo Adolfo.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102907/56649d925503460f94a780fa/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
A pure found poem is only made up of outside texts: the words of the poem remain as they were found, with few additions or omissions.
Decisions of form, such as where to break a line, are left to the poet.

RhymingRhyming words are words which end with
similar vowel sounds. Rhymes happen when this sameness of
sound exists between words, or syllables, within two or more lines of poetry.

SimileSimiles help us understand one thing by
comparing it with another. We use similes when we say “he runs like a
deer” or “those clouds look like cottage cheese”.
A simile will always use words LIKE or AS.

to another but without the use of “like” or “as”
Example: But my heart is a lonely hunter that hunts on a lonely hill.
