my taonga

My Taonga

My taonga is a silver spoon.  It originated from my great grandfather all the way to me. It looks like a normal spoon but with white patches. Originally the spoon was for eating but we  keep it safe in a draw.

It is important to me because it reminds me of my family.  When I have kids I will show them my taonga and I will tell them about it and they will be able the learn about it.

my onomatopoeia poem

Sausage on a pan


Grrrrrr… the freezer opens like a chest’s top opening.  
I reach inside the icicle like freezer and grab the frigid sausages.
Shhhhhhh the noise of the freezer closing annoys my brain.  
I start warming the sausages in the microwave, beep beep.
The irritating noise annoys my brain even more “uhhhhhhhhh why today” I groan.  
I continue preparing the sausage.
Next I settle the sausage on the pan, sizzle sizzle pop!  
Ahhhhhh I vociferate, a sigh of relief escapes  out of my mouth like an ocean’s breeze.
The tragedy is done now I can enjoy my sausage.
