  14. Onomatopoeia Examples Noises By: Danielle Caryl The click of the clock, the creak of the stair, the squeak of the mouse and the swoosh of the air. The groan of the house as it settles below, and outside the window, the patter of snow. The scruff of the dogs paws below where I rest, The rattle of the window that seems to face west. The jingle of bells from the wind chime next door The unearthly sound of a truly loud snore. The crunching of snow under an animals feet. The honk of a horn from right down the street. So many noises I just want to weep, Is it to much to ask for some sleep?

  15. Onomatopoeia Examples I know all the sounds the animals make, And make them all day from the moment I wake I roar like a mouse and purr like a moose, I hoot like a duck and I moo like a goose I squeak like a cat and quack like a frog, I oink like a bear and honk like a hog. I croak like a cow and I bark like a bee, No wonder the animals marvel me.

My mouth erupted of lava And my tongue began to melt My ears were shooting jets of steam At least that’s how I felt I ricocheted around the room, I ran across the ceiling I dove right in the freezer To relieve the burning feeling I drank a thousand soda pops And chewed a ton of ice To try to stop the scorching Of that spicy pepper’s spice. At last the flames extinguished, I admitted to my brother “That pepper was the best one yet May I please have another?”

  19. Like What Examples Fear Fear is like the midnight sky, smells like rotting Flesh in a grave yard feels slimy and cold, sending shivers up your spine. Fear tastes like worms crawling on a rotten chevey. Is cold like a week old murder victim is warm like a sunset shining over a tombstone fear looks like someone else’s shadow on a wall sounds like sharp finger nails on a black board. Glides swiftly, temping and daring, as a snake but don’t be afraid ‘cause fear is your friend. Loyalty Loyalty is blue like the sky in the heavens hot like warmth of your heart it sounds like silence in the still air. Loyalty is purple like the tropical islands flies through the air like a beautiful butterfly looks like the soft wool of a lamb It smells like the fresh scent of mulberries and sounds like birds singing in the trees loyalty tastes as sweet as candy. It looks like the waves of the sea hitting the beach

This is part of his hushed Wisdom. Shouted Whispers I hear a faint crying of a baby The leaves rustling Rain pouring down on the lake wind blowing in the hills Children Playing in the hills It all seems like shouts Giving me a headache Although it is just whispers That sound like a wonderful song These shouted whispers make me feel confused
