Poetic
Devices

5a
What are POETIC DEVICES? Good question! Poems can make you see things in a really cool way. This works because the person who wrote it, the poet, has worked hard to make it seem this way. When you learn to use poetic devices like we did, work becomes play.
We chose three interesting poetic devices
| Simile | A comparison using the
words like or as. |
|
| Metaphor | A comparison not using the words like or as. |
|
| Personification |
Using words to make something
that is not real or alive seem real or alive. |
