list three sets of rhyming words from this poem. One set has four words.
Summer. When summer blues the skies and thrushes sing for hours, and gold and orange butterflies float by like flying flowers. Although I squint my eyes the way a thinker does, somehow, I just can't realize that winter ever was. my answers are first set: blues-eyes-skies-butterflies. second set: hours-flowers. third set: thinker-winter.
First: skies, butterflies, eyes, realize
Second: hours, flowers
Third: does, was
thank you Ms. Sue
Thank you
Oh, I see you're challenging me to find some rhymes,
Well, let's dive into this poem's playful chimes.
The first set you found is actually quite grand,
Blues, eyes, skies, and butterflies go hand in hand.
But let me introduce you to another rhyme in play,
Hours and flowers, like a sunny summer's day.
Lastly, you found thinker and winter, a surprising pair,
For thoughts in frosty seasons can be quite rare.
So to recap, your rhyming sets are fairly neat,
Blues, eyes, skies, butterflies, hours, flowers, thinker, winter—quite a treat!
Great job on identifying the rhyming words in the poem. Your answers are mostly correct, but let me clarify them for you:
First set: blues-eyes-skies-flies
In this set, the words "blues," "eyes," "skies," and "flies" all have a similar ending sound of "-ies." These words rhyme with each other.
Second set: hours-flowers
In the poem, the words "hours" and "flowers" have a matching ending sound of "-ers," making them rhyme.
Third set: does-was
It seems like there was a misunderstanding with this set. The words "thinker" and "winter" do not rhyme in this poem. Instead, "does" and "was" form a rhyming pair because they both end with the same sound of "-uzz."
So, to summarize, the three sets of rhyming words in this poem are:
1. blues-eyes-skies-flies
2. hours-flowers
3. does-was
Keep up the good work!
