This poem is an adjective poem. An adjective poem is a poem made up by using all, or mostly adjectives. In this poem, I chose to use only adjectives, and I arranged my poem in the shape of a slope. This poem is about snowboarding, describing the most abundant emotions that I feel when I think about snowboarding, or while I snowboard. I'm sure there are a lot of people who snowboard and who can relate to this poem. As well, this poem goes with my theme seeing as snowboarding, although relatively new to the olympics, is growing in popularity, and also we have had a couple gold medalists in either snowboarding events this past olympics. Some literary devices used in this poem are assonance and repetition (of the syllable 'ing'). As someone reads the poem, I tried to create a feeling of adrenaline, as a snowboarder whose heart starts racing faster and faster as he/she is going down the slope (hence the shape of the poem and the intensity of the chosen adjectives). It is a poem which describes emotion and atmosphere.
Woah, I love how you used the adjectives and put them into a slope like a mountain! Very cool! I can relate to this poem because I also snowboard, and I agree with all those describing words. I like how every couple of words you would use a word with the ending "ing" , which made a good repetition.
