Hello again, everyone! This is a poem I wrote called Thesaurus.
I pace back and forth
Scanning my options
Finally I lift
A book off the shelf
The Thesaurus
It’s perfect, it’s just what I need
I’ve been writing a story all day, you see
But all of my words
Seem boring and bland
But my Thesaurus will spruce it up for me
I open the cover
Words take to the air
They circle above
And I’m excited, no, delighted
For my synonym snack today
As you might know, I’ve been writing lots these days and the Thesaurus has helped me think of plenty words that are just so much more interesting than words like nice or good. I write weekly newsletter for my fifth grade class and occasionally I create a word search. When I do, I often find myself referring to the online thesaurus for some more words to add into the search. If you are a budding author, I would definitely recommend tossing in words that are more unusual than your plain, everyday words. You don’t need to use a lot, just one or two will intrigue your readers😉 That’s it from me(for now!). See you later!
