My Poetry Piece " Mango Sweet, Mango Bright"

 Hi everyone! I’m Teacher Charlyn, we spent time learning all about poetry, especially how poets use repetition and imagery to make their writing musical and full of life. After exploring different examples in class,  I decided to try writing my own poem to model what we learned. 

Today, I’m excited to share my poem “Mango Sweet, Mango Bright.” It’s a simple, joyful piece that shows how repetition and descriptive words can paint a picture of something we see every day, our beloved Caribbean mango. Enjoy!

Poetry Grade 5

 

Mango sweet, mango bright,

Hanging high in the sunlight,

Golden fruit that feels just right.

Mango sweet, mango bright,

Juice that drips with pure delight,

A taste that makes the world feel light.

Mango sweet, mango bright,

Dancing leaves in morning light,

A gift of summer, warm and bright.

Mango sweet, mango bright,

Shining softly in the night,

A treasure glowing in moonlight.

Mango sweet, mango bright,

Friends and children take a bite,

Nature’s treasure shining bright.
