Answered by Ms. Sue
If you'll list the poetry terms you want to remember, we'll try to help you.
Answered by Ms. Sue
Please also include a brief definition of each term.
Answered by kaitlyn
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
Answered by Ms. Sue
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.

Answered by Ms. Sue
I didn't find a song. Sorry.
Answered by kaitlyn
That's Okay, you tried and that was enough, thanx Ms Sue Ireally appreciate it
Answered by Ms. Sue
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!
