W.A.L.T: Draw inferences from a piece of poetry
In Room 2 we have been doing our reading slides. I had to make a google doc of a timeline for what happened to the Huia.
The Huia was a beautiful bird that was used for their feathers. The highlighted bits are an Adverb of time
Huia TimeLine
Huia - Bill Manhire
I was the first of birds to sing
I sang to signal rain
the one I loved was singing
and singing once again
My wings were made of sunlight
My tail was made of frost
My song was now a warning
and now a song of love
I sang upon a postage stamp
I sang upon your coins
but money stepped towards me
and stole away my voice
Where are you when you vanish?
Where are you when your found
I’m made of greed and anguish
a feather on the ground
