Poem About Turtles

Tia's Totally Terrific Turtles

Tia took two turtles,
She taught them to do hurdles.
She must be a terrific teacher,
To be able to tame such a creature.

The turtles won the races,
They wore smiles upon their faces.
They eat meat and sleep all day,
It makes Tia dance and scream HOORAY!

By Tia Davison

Analyzation

This poem is about me and a couple turtles. It is a narrative/free verse. There are two quatrains. The rhyme scheme is AABB CCDD. Alliteration is used on line one "Tia took two turtles" and again on line three "terrific teacher". Personification is used because on line two, turtles cannot jump hurdles. Assonance is used on line one, the Ooh sound is being made with took and two.
