During my early years of sojourn on the internet, As I to and fro the World Wide Web I stumbled upon a castle called Nairaland So impressed by the work of the Architect-Seun Osewa I decided to pitch my tent thereby! As I peruse the front page for captivating news' Here comes an attention catching topic' "Poetry Class for Begginers" With enthusiasm I signed up, A platform to finally achieve My dream, Alas! become a poet. In rubbing mind with great minds, The likes of Ray,Laykorn, Everest,Oma4U' Fhysx was made fit! Firestar's rebelling on papyrus really got me thinking. CCM_Poet's inking trickles me. Yusjet, Donifez, Olumide amidst otherS, All kept the ship from sinking when the tides arouse. Light Mark's dedication to the course amazes me. Texanomaly, omo Oyinbo to n so pidgin.

Understatement is the purposeful use of language that downplays a situation, as in Mark Twain's statement, "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated." A familiar example in poetry occurs at the end of Frost's "Fire and Ice": "…if it had to perish twice,/I think I know enough of hate/To say that for destruction ice/Is also great/And would suffice." When Mercutio is dying in Romeo and Juliet, he uses understatement in speaking of his mortal wound: "… ‘tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church door, but ‘tis enough, ‘twill serve." 1 Like |

Metaphor states that one thing is something else. It is a comparison, but does NOT use like or as to make the comparison. Example: Her hair is silk. Hair and silk are being compared. |

Simile is a comparison using like or as. It usually compares two unlike objects. Example: His feet are as big as boats. Feet and boats are being compared. |

Rhythm is when the arrangement of words creates an audible pattern or beat when read out loud. A good way to check to see if a passage of text is using rhythm is to just hum the sounds that the words make rather than clearly pronouncing them. If you can hear a song or identify a form in the sounds, then the text is rhythmic. There once was a guy from Chicago / Who drank away all of his problems. I know it is wet and the sun is not sunny / but we can have lots of good fun that is funny. Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? Instead of just reading these examples, trying humming them. Do you hear how they sort of bounce? This is a rhythm. 1 Like |
