Bird

Bird

A bird looks as feathery as a peacock.
Its chirps sound as cheerful as laughter.
It smells of nothing just like air.
The feathers feel as smooth as silk.
It flies with a "whoosh" like a car passing by.
A bird flies freely as a leaf dances in the wind.
The bird's land is the sky.
The best thing they can do is fly.


Analysis

This poem is the imagery of a bird. This is an imagery poem with the rhyme at the end "sky and fly." It has similes in line 1 "feathery as a peacock," line 2 "cheerful as laughter", line 3 "nothing just like air," line 4 "smooth as silk," line 5 "whoosh like a car passing by," and line 6 "flies freely as a leaf dances in the wind." There is personification on line 6 "leaf dances in the wind" and there is imagery in lines 1 "looks," line 2 "sound," line 3 "smells," line 4 "feel," and line 5 is onomatopoeia "whoosh."
