I've started a new year in middle school and we've been assigned to write a poem about an animal (w/ alliterations and extended similes) I wrote this poem. what grade level do you think that it would get a good grade in & for middle school what grade?
Looking down
From the limb of a leaning evergreen
The panther's delicate paws
Softly grasp the firm bark
The panther sees
The silky, silent forest
Take on a limber look
As the shade of green overtakes all
The silence is licked away
Like the waves on a sandy waterfront
Ever so often returning only to be embraced
And dissolved by the sand once again
The dissonant songs of the toucans
The crackly croaks of the toads
Blend like the beating of drums
Then fade and the silence is renewed
The panther getting restless
Leaps from its leafy lodge
In search of a meal
And a new sanctuary to settle at
The rustling grows still
The panther picks up not one peep
With his black furry ears
As the forest honors its emperor
