Pride By: Dahlia Ravikovitch Ashley & Mallorree Pride By: Dahlia Ravikovitch

Pride I tell you, even rocks crack, and not because of age. For years they lie on their backs in the heat and the cold, so many years, it seems peaceful. They don’t move, so the cracks stay hidden. A kind of pride. Years pass over them, waiting there. Whoever is going to shatter them hasn't come yet. And so the moss flourishes, the seaweed whips around, the sea pushes through and rolls back--- the rocks seem motionless. And suddenly the rock has an open wound. I told you, when rocks break, it happens by surprise. And people, too

Form Form: What is Form? Free Verse Why? The way a poem looks A type of poetic style in which lines are organized in a loose conversational way Why? It’s not put into groups of lines

Types of rhyme Internal 1. Rhyme within a line Ex: They don’t move, so the cracks stay hidden (line 7) End 2. Rhyme at the end of a line Ex: I tell you, even rocks crack, and not because of age. For years they lie on their backs (line 1-3)

Imagery Figurative description or illustration What do you picture when you read the poem? Rocks cracking Waves in a sea Seaweed flowing A little seal scratching it’s back on a rock

Alliteration Repetition of sounds in the beginning of words Ex: So the cracks stay hidden (line 7) Till a little seal comes to run against them (line 16 )

Assonance Repetition of similar vowel sounds Examples: Whoever is going to shatter them A kind of pride.

Onomatopoeia Use of words whose sound suggest their meaning Ex: I tell you, even rocks crack ( line 1 ) And so the moss flourishes, the seaweed whips around (line 12 & 13) Whoever is going to shatter them ( line 10 )

Personification Giving human qualities to non-living objects Ex: For years they lie on their backs ( line 3 ) And suddenly the rock has an open wound ( line 18 )

Metaphor Comparing two items without using “like” or “as” Examples I told you, when rocks break, it happens by surprise. And people, too. ( line 19-20 )

Repetition Repeating of sounds or words Ex: Rocks cracking

Symbolism An object used by an author to represent something else Ex: The rocks symbolize a person’s emotions and how other’s reactions effect someone.

Speaker The voice the reader hears relating the ideas of a poem, not necessarily the poet. Being wise

Identify/Analyze/Explain A person can only endorse so much criticism and distress until they finally break down. Why? The poem says that rocks can take only so much pressure just like people. Hurtful words can leave a huge impact on a person’s life.

Merry Christmas
