Question

what is a good song for remembering poetry terms. I memorize lyrics really well.Please help ;-)

Answer 1

If you'll list the poetry terms you want to remember, we'll try to help you.

Answer 2

Please also include a brief definition of each term.

Answer 3

metaphor- commparing 2 unlike things without using like or as
Simile- comparing 2 things using like or as
Oxymoron-ex. jumbo shrimp, pretty ugly
Personificaton- giving human qualities to inanimate objects
Alliteration- initial repetition of consonant sounds
But I need way more poetry terms than this, such as illusion,etc

Answer 4

A metaphor is neat --
The fog creeps in on little cat feet.
Use like or as for a simile --
Dad is solid like an old oak tree.
For an oxymoron, don't be limp --
Just think of extra jumbo shrimp.


I'm a terrible poet -- but you'd learn much more by making up your own lyrics.

You're very welcome. I guess you just have to memorize these terms and definitions the old fashioned ways. Write the words on one side of a note card and a definition and example on the other side.

Practice, practice, practice!
