April Fool's Day Poem by Kenn Nesbitt

April Fool's Day



Mackenzie put a whoopie cushion
on the teacher's chair.
Makayla told the teacher
that a bug was in her hair.

Alyssa brought an apple
with a purple gummy worm
and gave it to the teacher
just to see if she would squirm.

Elijah left a piece of plastic
dog doo on the floor,
and Vincent put some plastic vomit
in the teacher's drawer.

Amanda put a goldfish
in the teacher's drinking glass.
These April Fool's Day pranks
are ones that you could use in class.

Before you go and try them, though,
there's something I should mention:
The teacher wasn't fooling
when she put us in detention.

It would be nice if you could show us where some figurative language is in these poems. My class really likes these poems and we like hunting for figurative language, but sometimes it is difficult, and we could use a little help! ! Thanks! !
