Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain) uses a fine humor style which is easily detected in extracts like:

<em>"Thish-yer Smiley had a mare; the boys called the fifteen minute nag(...) for all she was so slow and always had the asthma, or the distemper or the consumption, or something of that kind."</em>

<em>"...And he had a little small bull pup, that to look at him you´d think he warn´t worth a cent(...) his underjaw´d begin to stick out like the fo´castle of a steamboat..."</em>

<em>"...He ketched a frog one day, and took him home, and said he cal´klated to edercate him(...) and you bet you he did learn him, too.</em>

Twain is satirizing several aspects of American life, but specially the country "punks" who tend to speak at length about subjects that are close to them but are really unimportant an nonsensical.

Write a poem, focused on a topic of your choosing. You must use at least two of the figurative language techniques from this les
8090 [49]

Answer:

The happiness of waking up early.

When the day dawns

I hear the sun calling me

I get up quickly, taking his order

For another day is beginning.

It seems uncomfortable when I speak

But waking up early is awesome

For the day full of opportunities begins

and renew my hopes with dew.

Many do not admire my prowess

Waking up early every day

They prefer the company of the moon as nocturnal animals

And they sleep all day to make up for it.

I really like the company of the sun

Of heat and movement.

Everyone seems refreshed by the day

And that is my encouragement.

Explanation:

The poem was written in white verse, with four stanzas and four verses each.

As was asked in the question above, two types of figurative language were used. One challenge is personification, which allowed the sun to have the capacity to call someone, which only humans can do. This can be seen on the line "I hear the sun calling me"

In addition, the metaphor was used to make a comparison between people who sleep late and nocturnal animals. This can be seen on the line "They prefer the company of the moon as nocturnal animals ".
