My literacy comparison poem

 WALT: write about our literacy task.

today in our literacy rotations we had to make a poem comparison about two poems we read. the poems were my 'Granddads hands' and 'Huia'. we had to write what language features the poems had and what effect it gave us as readers here is my poem comparison    

It was most challenging to explain what effect the poems had on me as a reader 

do you like to read poems?              have you ever done a poem comparison before? 

have you read or heard of these poems before? 

I heard a whisper but no one was there.

W.A.L.T: write a narrative for our assessment  

I heard a whisper but no one was there

It was 3:00 am I was asleep but then i heard a voice calling my name ‘George’ ‘Mum! Dad!’ i yelled. Then i heard a second voice but it was different it called my sisters name ‘Sarah’ my dog jack started to bark. So Sarah and i got up and started to look around but there was no one there. We heard it again nothing around so we went to our parents room and we entered the room with fear mum and dad asked us ‘what’s wrong’ and Sarah replied ‘we heard our names being called so we wandered the house but there was nothing so we got worried.’ ‘worried about what’ said dad. ‘Worried that um actually i don’t really know’ i replied to dad. ‘just go back to bed and try to fall asleep’ said mum. ‘Okay’ Sarah and i said so we went back to sleep and we heard the noise again but it said ‘help.’ ‘Sarah ‘i said ‘what’ replied Sarah ‘did you hear that’ i asked Sarah said ‘hear what.’ i was starting to question myself ‘is this all in my head’ ‘it can’t be because Sarah heard it too.’ I asked Sarah if she heard it and she didn't. I went back to sleep again and then i didn’t hear it again so i woke up the next morning and figured out it was just all in my head.
