Question

Accepted Answer

Poetic devices are techniques used in poetry to create specific effects and enhance the overall meaning and beauty of the poem.

Simile: comparing two unlike things using 'like' or 'as' (e.g., 'Her smile is as bright as the sun')
Metaphor: implying a comparison between two unrelated things (e.g., 'Love is a battlefield')
Personification: giving human qualities to non-human objects or ideas (e.g., 'The wind whispered through the trees')
Alliteration: repetition of the same sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words (e.g., 'Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers')
Assonance: repetition of vowel sounds within words (e.g., 'The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain')
Onomatopoeia: words that imitate the sound they represent (e.g., 'buzz', 'hiss', 'crash')
Hyperbole: exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally (e.g., 'I've told you a million times')
Repetition: repeating words, phrases, or lines for emphasis (e.g., 'Nevermore', repeated in Edgar Allan Poe's 'The Raven')
Imagery: using vivid and descriptive language to create mental images (e.g., 'The golden sun sank below the horizon')
