I need help writring a poem that Has smile,imagery,personification,
777dan777 [17]
Well, simile is a comparison using like or as. Ex: His hair was as white as snow. I am unsure of imagery. Personification is describing inanimate things with human traits. Ex: The sun smiled down at the Earth. Metaphor is directly saying that one thing is another thing. Ex: The shoes were cement on her feet. I am unsure of tone. And hyperbole is like an exaggeration. Ex: The book weighed a ton.
