2. a personification for the smell of a freshly baked apple pie. 3. a simile for the taste of fried chicken 4. a metaphor for wine a grey frown clouding the sky 2. the aroma of the pie leaping into the air, tickling your nose and making your mouth water. 3. like spicy heaven in batter 4. red (or white) velvet The sky was the bluest of blues and there was a faint fragrant permeating from the beautiful flowers that had bloomed that Spring.......the temperature had mellowed out and there was a soft breeze blowing and it made for a very romantic atmosphere. On a cold, winter day, I walked to the park wearing a grey trench coat. People passed and I could see they were merry, for Christmas was on its way. As I reached the park, I saw kids throwing snowballs and making snowmen while other people were ice skating and laughing. As I watched all of this, I was thinking of my Christmas past, throwing snow balls with my sister, opening presents on Christmas Day, and me in my youth laughing and enjoying the thought of my family together. Soon those happy times were over so I left the park leaving behind all my memories with the knowledge that this, too, would soon be a memory! The clouds are like cotton candy swirling around ever so gently in a bowl. Moving calmly in the wind, and moving further away from the trees and the sun. I hear the big, giants rustling in the cool, calm breeze. Looking at the sun setting is so bright and yellow. I can't look away. Soon, the shading covers the dark brown ground, and the cloud is a peach just beginning to ripen. The sunset is like a tiger beginning to pounce on its prey. When I look at the trees they almost disappear into the night sky The Lost Tree The tree is a person standing alone in the darkness waiting for the sun to come out of hiding. It's as lonely as a new student waiting to make friends. Clouds slowly start to pull apart as the sun peeks around the corner. The creaky fence is a gate to the field of trees below. Barbwire sits ready to remind anyone who comes close enough to stay away. All the rickety braches rock like a new born baby snug in the arms of its mother gently swaying in a rocking chair. The sad tree waits as a single raindrop trickles down the long healthy trunk. The sky darkens and is ready for the storm coming its way. It thunders and booms and the dead grass lay motionless soaked. But the little tree still stands alone.
The Majestic Night The moon shone brightly, like a candle illuminating a pitch black room. I lowered my gaze and set it on the tall oak tree. It was either dead, or if it was winter, "sleeping". Its leafless branches extended toward the sky like a frail cob web blowing in the wind. I shuddered, the moon was an orange, it was strangely full, (if it were an orange it would burst with ripeness), and deep in color. It looked like a marmalade kind of yellow, with a tint of red in it. It cast an evil glow across the sky. The sky was even stranger; it was dull and cloudy, the clouds were plump, (and rather squashed looking) apples. (Or that's what they looked like) and had a mix of fiery red, black, and blue. It was eerie, yet majestically beautiful. I stood transfixed for a moment, sighed and started to walk off, dead leaves suffocating between my feet. Elizabeth Drop When you glance down you can see a pond with water that is as clear as glass. It just showered a rhythmical rain. A constant "drip drop" tells you that water droplets, clear and circular just fell to the Earth. A leaf of pine green has an aqua drop that quickly falls down into the pond, like a ball bouncing off of the surface with a quiet splash. The bronze colored fish frantically scatter to the edges of the circular pool of water when the drop hits the surface. The cool refreshing water ripples as slowly as a Rollie-Polly. The ripples are soldiers slowly dying in a war.-- Connie Sandy Beach The sparkly sea splashes up onto the sandy beach. The sand spreads across the beach like million of tiny grains of salt, covered by shells the sea randomly washed up over the years. One is striped like a zebra with blue. Another one is a sunset colored pink, orange and cream. Small sticks are scattered forming many barriers against thedifferent shells. The sea is a bag of sunflower seeds with its salty aroma. I take one last glance and slowly walk back to the car awaiting the next time I visit the beach.-- Alice THE MOON A white orb, an illuminant tear in the grand tapes try of black around it. It sits perched like a hawk, staring through a blank, transparent window of fog that it is caged around, keeping its true celestial splendor from the thousands of spectators, sleeping under the shadow of light it casts. Its radiance, creeps around the blanket of mist that keeps it captivated from the land below it. It lies in the centre of the sky, as a blanket of wonder tucks it in. High in the sky it sits the center of attention to the bright gray and surrounding air. A silver quarter, falling through a dusty desk of black and gray. In the center, the moon, and all around it, fog with he depth of space around it. She sits, waiting anxiously, ready for anything. Her heart beats, waiting for the results. Cheering voices surround her, as she is waiting for the awards. After her hard day of work, strain, and concentration she hears, 4th. . . 3rd. . .2nd. . . then, a huge relief, 1st prize, her name is called. The grin on her face was lightning everyone's faces, for their teammate had won. The coaches hug her, her teammates cheer loudly, it is the happiest day of her life, now there is only one thing to do, go home, and keep working without forgetting the wonderful day when she beat134 girls.-- Tessa joyfully, I dipped my foot into the cool, clear ocean on that scorching hot day. The sun was beating down on me as the crystal blue water pulled the golden sand from between my toes. As the wave tumbled closer, I stood up on the surfboard and fearfully rode toward the safety of the shore.
