Disaster By:Annabel Pittman
She always causes trouble
Nhamo fixes things
This poem is about Nhamo. Nhamo menans disaster where she is from. She always seems to be causing problems even when it's an accident she is kind of prone to disasters. However Nhamo seems to know when to fix her mistakes. In the book A Girl Named Disaster it shows Nhamo making many mistakes. On page, 166 it says, " 'You horrible creature' she yelled. 'Why aren't you dead like you're supposed to be.'" This shows that she doesn't get along with other creatures and she upsets many of them.
Nhamo Never Needs Help By:Annabel Pittman
She is like a wolf alone and strong
Nhamo never needs help
A wolf is not wrong
Nhamo never needs help
Her dreams are as big as the ocean
Nhamo never needs help
She runs from the witches and their potions
Nhamo never needs help
She is caring and brave
Nhamo never needs help
She hides away in a cave
Nhamo never needs help
Finding her family with bumps along the way
Nhamo never needs help
Searching around all day
Nhamo never needs help
Finding friends and making memories
Nhamo never needs help
Well maybe sometimes
In this poem it potrays Nhamo as a strong and independent lady who can do things on her own. Nhamo is a brave soul who can get through anything. I know this because on page 211 when it says, " Nhamo's first chore, as soon as darkness lifted, was to get water." She can take care of herself on her own. The five poetry terms I represented in my poem were; alliteration, repetition, metaphor, simile, and repitition.
