Abstract Noun Poems by Prep IV

The recent National Poetry Day inspired a range of poetic activities throughout the department.  Here are a few poems written by Prep IV.

What are lies?

If it were a colour, they would be as brown as mud in the ground.

If you could taste them, they would be as bitter and sour, poison and grass.

If you could see them, they would look like old fruit.

They would smell like milk which has gone off.

They make me feel sad and angry as if I am a balloon about to pop.

Their size can be very big like the Eiffel Tower.

If then was a creature, it would be a big scary monster!

Without them, the world would be a lot better.

Angel

What is imagination?

If it were a colour, it would bae as violet as witches brew.

If you could taste it, it would be like sweet and sour.

If you could see it, it would look like mixed emotions turning into a huge monster.

It would smell like a rainbow which is sweet and lovely.

It makes me feel happy and sad, as if I want to cry and laugh.

Its size is as big as the sky.

If it was a creature it would be a lion and a tortoise.

Without it, the world would be full of sadness and despair.

What Are Lies?

Lies are…

If they were a colour, it would be as red as a volcano with red lava.

If you could taste them, they would be like anger, mean and discerning

If you could see them, they would look like a red poppy.

They would smell like red sauce which is hot and spicy.

They make me feel naughty, as if I did something wrong.

Their size is gigantic, as big as a new volcano.

If they were a creature, it would be as vicious as a tiger.

Without them the world would be happy.

What is anger?

Anger is…..

If it were a colour, it would be as blood red as a tomato that is ripe.

If you could taste it, it would be like fire rock, coal and lemon.

If you could see it, it would look like a fire monster.

It would smell like ash which is very fresh.

It makes me feel annoyed, as if I was a lion who was furious.

Its size is of a house.

If it was a creature, it would be a lion

Without it, the world would be a better place.
