frog poem growing up


1) Warm thick slobber sounds like a childs description
2) This ugly image would be appealing for a child.
3) Onomatopoeia is used in the word slobber this means it is makes the same noise as it is describing.
4) Clotted water in the shade of the banks this is a simile because it uses like infront of it this is saying that it is simalare to it.
5) They are effective because it gives you a mental picture in youre head so you can follow the poem.


But best of all was the warm thick slobber
Of frogs porn that grew like clotted water
In the shade of the banks. Here, every spring
I would fill jampotfuls of the jellied
Specks to range on window-sills at home.
On shelves at school, and wait and watch until
The fattening dots burst into nimble.
Swimming tadpoles.
 
  
We know that this image was created by a nature lesson because at the start of the poem starts with Miss Walls. The first section of the poem is quite a friendly tone but the second half of the poem starts to get quite aggresive.
