Sixth Class used a poetry app on the iPod Touches to create poems about disastrous weather conditions.
We have been studying hurricanes, typoons, tornadoes, blizzards, floods and storms in Geography.
We each chose a weather force and wrote a poem about it.
Snow Typhoons
By Emer H By Oisin S
Swirls all around Forms in the east
Lies on the ground Comes in from over the sea
On top of a post. Destroys cities.

Crunching dry toast Hurricanes and cyclones
Ice in the freezer Rips up houses
A broken, cold lever Destroys everything in its path
Falling Flattening all obstacles
Covers everything in a white blanket. Brings only pain & destruction.
Lightning Tornadoes
By Claire Mc By Caoimhe
Starts in the sky Sucks things off the ground
Making its way down Sweeps across the land
Hits the ground. Takes its prey.
Like Like
A flashing bulb An evil cheetah
Clouds quickly covering the sun Swirls like a whirlpool
Blinds opening and closing Loud as an elephant
Blinking Rumbling
Before your eyes. Like a dealy drumroll.
Snow
By Neasa
Freezes in the clouds
Falls slowly through the air
Drops gently to the ground.
Like
A white blanket
a dusting of sugar
A coating of ice cream.
Drifting
Covering everything it can.
