:Personification:

Personification is a type of figure of speech, it is used against non-living things/objects. It allows human qualities and traits, often through metaphor personification and is mostly used during visual arts. Some of the human traits and qualities it gives off can be such as, emotions, gestures, speeches, sensations and so on. 

It is basically allocating human emotions to an object(s) and is like another type of metaphor.

2019

The heat against me

makes me feel relaxed and warm

I love this weather

I notice theirs snow

As I see flakes slowly fall

I try to catch them

I love the colours

as the flowers start to wilt

I watch the petals

As I gasp the air

As the birds are chirping

the flowers bloom

Sensory language story

(smell, taste, touch, hear & see)

As I was pacing around town, looking at the different sights, I inhaled smokey flavor, coming from a bright restaurant I was focused towards. As I quickly pace towards the bright lights, taking small whiffs through the air, I take notice of the sizzling sounds surrounding my ears, making my mouth water every step i take to get closer. I am now inside the restaurant finally my lungs are filled with a delightful sensation of fragrances. I take my order, finally meeting my meal, gazing towards it, like it was a piece of art, I slowly pick up my cutlery, slowly slicing a piece off of the meat, my mouth opening, I ingest the first piece, hungrily wanting more, As I devour the rest I am happily satisfied and leave on a full stomach. THE END.

Slam Poetry

My favourite video on slam poetry with Mohamed Hassan called "I am dangerous", the reason as to why I am intrigued by this video is because, the way he explains his emotions and the power behind it, is very powerful and emotional. His expressions have a deep meaning, I feel that I can feel his emotions by his actions and tune of his voice. He is sharing a pain, that he wants people to know about, that is how I see it in my point of view.

One of the quotes he said that attracted me was "Kill me before I self destruct" and I feel as soon as he said that, it was because he was in pain and he wanted help.

Another one which caught my attention was when he stated " I am not human, I am emotionless"

I felt like he feels different and I just feel like these are two deep quotes for me.

Here is a link to the slam poetess I favour. 

Metaphors and similes

A metaphor is when you are saying you 'are' something or that thing, where as a simile is when you say you are somewhat similar to that thing or he/she.

Creative writing 

Simile:

I'm like that sloth (because I am very slow)

Metaphor:

I am that sloth.

I am pacing through the woods, lost with no food around. I feel like I am a tree going no where, I feel like everywhere I turn is all identical. I can remember my mother going for a walk through here, she said to me that she was very exhausted, and I feel like I was her, my body started aching trying to make my out of the forest, my legs started to become exhausted aswell.

Creative writing reflection

I think something that makes creative writing good is sharing your thoughts through a storyline or trying to show others your creative imagination and ideas. I think it is also good in ways which could help your grammar problems and could make you want to learn more.

While creating this presentation, I have also come to learn a lot about creative writing and different types of language features, I think that this could be very useful and helpful for my future.

While creating this presentation I think that one of my favourite topics I had to learn about, would have to be slam poetry, I have come to like it because I think that people who write their own slam poem or say one, may have a different way of seeing things. I also feel that each slam poem, has a deep meaning behind it and like all, has a different story to tell.
