Like monkeys, we'd swing from the branches and leap Onto dried crackling leaves that were piled in a heap! We would pluck at the fruit that sparkled like gold, We feasted the kings till Teacher would scold! When the school bus arrived, we tumbled out in great haste, And raced to our trees with no second to waste But alas! We were met with a shock and surprise, Oceans o tears welled up in our eye... For where our trees had once proudly stood, Was a terrible sight; a pile of chopped wood. The loggers stood by, their vile work was done, They hadn't clue that our work had just begun. Burning up with hot anger, up in arms, I confess, When we questioned them, they replied, this is progress We're building a road that will take you to places, This is great for the future, so why the sad faces Anguished and angry, we were weeping inside, When our wise teacher gently took us aside. "Dear children," she said, "We will fight for this cause, Forests hold the future and the future is yours! Trees are our treasure; they are worth a good fight, We will stand strong together and show them our might" 12. Name the poetic devices used in the extract? the poet?
