Ode Poems

Today we read and discussed, “Ode to the Lizard” by Pablo Neruda and worked on writing our own ode poems. For your blog homework tonight you will write another ode poem.

Remember, an ode is a poem meant to praise and describe something in detail.


Choose an ordinary object to write an ode about (such as a pencil, trash can, fire hydrant, apple, etc.) Be sure to use figurative language in your ode. Remember figurative language includes simile, metaphor, vivid imagery, etc.

    Ode to pencil, you help me with school
    Ode to pencil, you are as hard as a stone
    Ode to pencil, you are as quiet as the wind
    Ode to pencil, you help me write
    Ode to pencil, you help me think
    Ode to pencil, you will never leave me

  3. Ode to a Summer Day

    The strong smell of chlorine is in my nose
    the light reflects off the water
    white tiles seem to shift
    hot air is still and dry
    I don't need to go anywhere
    I don't need to do anything.

  8. O Drax the way your scales rubs on my hands,
    O Drax how we play when I feed you,
    O Drax when I scratch your spiky beard,
    O Drax your colors reminds me of the beach,
    O Drax the way the sand sounds when you rub your tail on it,
    O Drax the way you smile at me cheers me up when I’m down,
    O Drax when you lay on my shoulder it makes me feel loved,
    O Drax, how I love you to the max.

  11. Ode to the Lion
    O Lions how your brownish gold fur burns my sadness away
    your roar makes the world bow down and rejoice
    your thick mane scares off the cruelness of this earth for you make thy day of mine so much better when you smile
    for we must treat you better
    thank you Lions.

  13. ode to the ocean

    the ocean swave hit a rock close to the shore
    the blue cool water tickles your toes
    the great big ocean is a potion of motion
    an under water universe
    a great big fish bowl
    more mysterious than the eye can see or the mind can think
    ocean is a lotion to things in motion

  14. Ode to pencil

    Oh pencil, oh pencil
    I do think of thee
    You get out my feelings through your pointed tip
    Oh pencil, oh pencil
    The different worlds I can make with your graphite line
    Oh pencil, oh pencil
    I do think of thee
    Thine eraser lets me erase things I didn't mean to do
    Pencil, oh pencil
    I do thank thee.

    By the way I didn't copy Olive, I just decided to do an ode to a pencil and she happened to do an ode to a pencil as well. It's just a coincidence.

  15. O'Track, I heaven thee; When I run I run so quickly! O'Track, I heaven thee, When I run I get lots of energy! O'Track, I heaven thee, When I race no one can beat me! O'Track I heaven thee, When I start I don't stop easily! O' Track, I heaven thee, When I race I feel like I'm in the sea!

  17. O mom how much I love you, without you I wouldn't be me.

    O mom if it wasn't for you I wouldn't be here writing this poem, you make sure I have what I need and what I want.

    O mom, you make sure I have a roof over my head, you made sure that I had a sister.

    O mom, you bring joy to my face whenever I see you, if you think I'm upset you will make sure if I am or not.

    O mom, you always make me feel ok, when I'm with you I feel like I'm protected.

    O mom I LOVE YOU SO DEARLY.

  18. O Soccer
    When I kick I feel exhilaration
    When I back heel I feel good
    O Soccer
    When I see the ball soaring through the air I care
    O soccer I love how I juggle around fast like a hound
    O soccer

    O pencils
    I need you to write
    Without you I don't know what I'd do
    O pencils

    When you break I get sad

  20. Ode to a pencil
    Without a pencil
    I wouldn't be able to write
    I wouldn't be able to write all my cool awesome ideas
    There would be no reading
    No excitement!
    No one would know about history
    Without a pencil you can't write down how amazing your day was
