Descriptive Writing Poetry Terms 1 st Period

Alliteration

Simile A comparison between two or more seemingly unlike things using “like” or “as” for the purpose of adding insight/description. (Note: You must be aware of the physical, emotional, intellectual, and social implications of your comparisons.) – Example 1: The cat’s teeth were as sharp as daggers.

Metaphor Metaphor: A comparison between two or more seemingly unlike things without using “like” or “as”. Metaphors tend to be more lengthy and complicated. – Example 1: He is the workhorse of the team. He was a lion on the football field. – Example 2: The pillow was a rock.

SYMBOLISM the use of color or symbols to represent ideas, feelings, etc. – Example: The American flag symbolizes freedom. A dove symbolizes peace.

Hyperbole gross exaggeration used in literary work. – Example: The weight of the world is on his shoulders.

Allusion a reference in a work to another work, piece of literature, work of art, song, person, or historical situation for the purpose of drawing connections &/or increasing understanding. – Example: Their relationship was like Romeo and Juliet.

Enjambment an unnatural break in thought between two lines of poetry. – Example: I think that I shall never see a poem as lovely as a tree. I am to gong to the game.

Personification giving non-living things human attributes. Example: My pencil is running overtime.

Onomatopoeia a word that imitates or suggests the source of the sound that it describes. – Example: Onomatopoeias include animal noises, such as “oink” or “meow”.

Imagery when you use show don’t tell, word choice, and the five senses to create a mental picture. – Example: “ A host of golden daffodils;/ Beside the lake, beneath the trees, /Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.”

Couplet a couplet has rhyming stanzas each made up of two lines. Shakespearean sonnets usually end in a couplet. – Example: “If turkeys gobble, Do Pilgrims squabble?”

Quatrain Quatrain: A stanza or poem of four lines. – Lines 2 and 4 must rhyme. – Lines 1 and 3 may or may not rhyme. – Example: “Look Before You Leap” from Auden The sense of danger must not disappear: The way is certainly both short and steep, However gradual it looks from here; Look if you like, but you will have to leap.

Refrain Refrain: a phrase, line, or group of lines that is repeated throughout a poem, usually after every stanza. – Very common in music lyrics.

STANZA Stanza: two or more lines of poetry that together form one of the divisions of a poem. Example: Think of stanzas like paragraphs. – 2 lines = CoupletCouplet – 3 lines = TercetTercet – 4 lines = QuatrainQuatrain – 5 lines = CinquainCinquain – 6 lines = SestetSestet – 7 lines = Septet – 8 lines = Octave

Your Turn TRY Completing this: There once was a pauper named Meg Who accidentally broke her______. She slipped on the ______. Not once, but thrice Take no pity on her, I __________. * HINT w/Beat: Practice the rhythm of limericks by clapping you hands or snapping your fingers. Think of some funny names, places, or situations. 1.) Using the a a b b a 5-line form, write an original limerick. 2.)
