The correct answers are:

*Black verse:

There is a quiet spirit in these woods,

That dwells where'er the gentle south-wind blows;

Where, underneath the white-thorn, in the glade,

The wild flowers bloom, or, kissing the soft air,

The leaves above their sunny palms outspread. (from "The Spirit of Poetry" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow)

<em>The poetic style of this poem is </em><em>black verse</em><em>, since it is written with regular metrical but unrhymed lines. In other words, un-rhyming verses written in iambic pentameter. </em>

*Enjambment:

Ah! what is not a dream by day

To him whose eyes are cast

On things around him with a ray

Turned back upon the past? (from "A Dream" by Edgar Allan Poe)

<em>The poetic style of this poem is </em><em>enjambment</em><em>, since it contains lines that end without punctuation and without completing a sentence or clause.</em>

*Iambic pentameter:

I said unto myself, if I were dead,

What would befall these children? What would be

Their fate, who now are looking up to me

For help and furtherance? Their lives, I said, (from "A Shadow" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow)

<em>The poetic style of this poem is </em><em>iambic pentameter</em><em>, since it is a combination of one unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. An iambic pentameter has five stressed syllables and ten syllables total. </em>

Can someone write an ode for me. Must have hyperbole and personification
slega [8]
She made a fool of herself again.
She took a leap of faith
But fell flat on her face.
She yearns to reach her own expectations
Yet when she gets close they move away.
Sadistic smile on their faces
For they love to she her suffer.
She sad mad definitely not glad.
Overwhelmed with emotions she cries.
Her tears could fill the Grand Canyon.

Positive parenting can begin when the child is how old?
IRINA_888 [86]
From the outset really "Positive parenting" describes a whole set of attitudes to the parenting process. The earlier parents consider using the model or approach the more likely it is to be successful. Even when the child is not able to actually verbally express themselves, their parents can still display a positive attitude towards them.

Please help me need this before 12:10 list 3 details using sight , sound, taste, touch, smell about first time biking
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Sight : The road begun to glisten underneath the headlights, Sparks lit up the dusk of day, A blinking red light from the trucks turn signal illuminated the darkened road.

Sound : The howling of wind soars through the sky, The branches creaking under the weight of ice, The sounds of emergency sirens awakened the still roads.

Touch : Car tires gripped the ice with fearful intensity, The power lines, heavy from the thickness of ice had snapped, This could include light touch, discriminative touch and touch pressure.

Taste : ice cold strawberries, juicy tartness of oranges, Sweet pulpy mangoes.

Smell : Rotting leaves and crispness of air, pungent odor of smoke, Sweet aroma of baking cornbread.

Explanation:

Hope it helps!!
