Writing Assignment: A Poem Draft 30 points

Answer 1

You can draft a poem using alliteration as a sound technique and personification as a figurative language technique, as explained below.

The use of alliteration and personification

Alliteration is a sound device that consists of repeating the same consonant sound at the beginning of different words that are subsequent to one another. Personification is the attribution of human qualities and actions to inanimate objects.

Both are good examples of devices you can you when you draft your poem. We cannot write the whole poem for you here, but we can exemplify a few lines using those devices to help you. These lines are a description of summer. Take a look below:

• "The soft song of singing cicadas (alliteration)

After the rain, the gentle sun that kisses the emerald green (personification)

Of the grass that stretches over the hills

Is summer incarnated, alive"

The alliteration above consists of the repetition of the "s" sound in four words - notice that in "cicada," the "s" sound appears in the form of the letter "c". The purpose is to imitate the sound that cicadas make in the summer. As for the personification, it consists of giving the sun the human action of kissing.
