Question

Write an original poem that: • Uses a form appropriate to the topic and subject matter • Includes use of at least 3 sound devices, including 1. Onomatopoeia 2. Alliteration  (please help)

Answer 1

For writing poems, pick something you like to do, like a hobby, and explain what you love about it and explain what you feel when you do it.

For the sound devices, onomatopoeia is something like, POP or CRASH or BOOM, that would help the reader sound visualize.

Ex: I️ love playing hockey,
When I️ skate around
The court I️ hear
The SKSHH of
The ice


Ex2: Music is wonderful,
When I️ play I️ express
My feeling and thoughts
The BOOM of the bass
Drum of the TOODLE of
The flute.



Alliteration examples and how you can incorporate it into your writing...

ex of alliteration:

Sally sold seashells by the seashore

Or

Peter piper picked a patch of pickled peppers


Using it in you writing...


Ex: Hockey hops with a hunger (idk)


Ex2: Sounds through the ground from the side of the ceiling


Hope I️ helped a bit ;)

Answer 2

This is a personal question, and therefore, only you can answer it properly. However, we can provide an example to guide your work. As the topic and subject matter are not included here, I will chose the subject of reading.

There is nothing I love in this world more than reading,

I just can't describe how I love this magical feeling.

I am immediately transported as I sit in my nook,

and to a hundred different lands I travel when I open my book.

Bang! Bang! A gun cuts through the air in the Old West,

And the kiss of a prince awakens a princess from her rest.

Robin Hood appears and reminds me to be bold, be brave.

And with Aladdin I see a million wonders within the cave.

The things I can discover within the pages never end,

and that's why books willl aways be my best friends.

In this poem, I use onomatopoeia, alliteration and rhyme. Alliteration is a device in which several words that are close together have the same initial consonant sound. I use this device in "be bold, be brave." Onomatopoeia is a word that phonetically imitates the sound that it describes. I use this device in "Bang! Bang!"
