Question

Do you hear music in this poem? “Harlem (A Dream Deferred)” by Langston Hughes

Answer 1

Answer:

When we read this poem aloud, we can't help but inflect (raise) our voices at the end of each question. The result is a sound that doesn't quite ever settle down; every line sounds like an airplane taking off into the sky. We can't forget that Langston was a part of the Harlem Renaissance.

So he shared music through poetry, and poetry through music. Hughes’s love for the music found its way to the page, giving rise to the fusion genre known as jazz poetry. Rhythm is what makes music as well as poetry.

The flowing of words, the instruments smooth melody; all a part of the greater meaning, poetry. In fact, there's even a form of poetry which is made into music called lyrical poems. They are just that, musical lyrics.
