SOUNDS CLS 1323 CREATIVE WRITING

DEFINING SOUNDS The sensation produced in the organs of hearing by waves of this type. In the terms of creative writing, poetry is meant to be read aloud. It is made up of musical sounds, and because of this, we need to know how poets make sounds which arrange themselves into beautiful poems. The most common sound devices used are alliteration and onomatopoeia. There are all kinds of sounds; alliteration, onomatopoeia, assonance, euphony, consonance and more

SOUNDS AlliterationAssonanceOnomatopoeiaEuphonyCacophonyRhymeRhythm

ALLITERATION Repetition of consonant sounds at the beginning of words that produces a rhythmic and musical effect to composition. E.g: Billy blew a blue bubble while bouncing on a bongo

ASSONANCE Repetition of vowel sounds in adjoining words. Similar to alliteration: it helps to create tone. It is also worthwhile noting whether or not it is regularly spaced

E.g: When thou sigh’st, thou sigh’st not wind, But sigh’s my soul away, When thou weep’st, unkindly kind, My life’s blood doth decay (Song, by Donne)

ONOMATOPEIA  This refers to words which imitate or echo the sounds that they describe, which usually spelled they way the sound sounds.  E.g: Only the monstrous anger of the guns Only the stuttering rifles rapid rattle Can patter out their hasty orisons (Anthem for Doomed Youth)

EUPHONY This term refers to the lines which are musically pleasant to the ear are described as euphonious. There is a harmony and beauty to the language which many poets are often after. E.g: Than Oars divide the Ocean, Too silver for a seam— Or Butterflies, off Banks of Noon Leap, plashless as they swim ( A Bird Came Down the Walk by Emily Dickenson )

CACAPHONY A jarring, jangling juxtaposition of words can be used to bring attention, too. Cacophony is discordant language that can be difficult to pronounce, as in John Updike's poem, "Player Piano“. Cacophony is the opposite of euphony; the sounds harsher and more discordant. For example; [B]ut most lay like corpses, their coverings coming undone, naked calves hard as corded wood spilling from under a cloak. (Leningrad Cemetery, Winter of 1941 by Sharon Old)

RHYME Rhyme used to echo sounds; to make use of words which sounds like one another. The use of rhymes makes it easier for readers to remember the words to the poems and songs. For example; It is the duty of the student Without exception to be prudent. If smarter than his teacher, tact Demands that he conceal the fact. (Duty of the Student Edward Anthony)

TYPES OF RHYME –True rhyme: True rhyme occurs when stressed syllables in pairs of words contain the same vowel and consonant sounds in combination, "dating" and "skating.“ –Slant rhyme: This type of rhyme is also known as "near rhyme," occurs when the rhyming is close but not perfect, as in "fort" and "fret," or "daisy" and "racy."

–Internal rhyme: Rhyming within single lines, as we find aplenty in Poe's "The Raven." Note the repetition of words ending in "-ember" in the first two lines below and words ending in "-orrow" in the third and fourth lines: Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December, And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor. Eagerly I wished the morrow; —vainly I had sought to borrow From my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost Lenore— For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore— Nameless here for evermore.

RHYTHM Rhythm brings significance to a composition. This refers to the progressive and regular patterns of accent in lines or stanzas. For example; Sister Suzie sewing shirts for soldiers Such skill at sewing shirts Our shy young sister Suzie shows Some soldiers send epistles Say they'd rather sleep in thistles Than the saucy, soft short shirts for soldiers Sister Suzie sews (Sister Suzie)
