The words of poetry

The basics of poetry

Alliteration: when a writer repeats the same sound in the first syllable of one word.

Example:

"Who wants a pancake, Sweet and piping hot? Good little Grace looks up and says, “I'll take the one on top.” Who else wants a pancake, Fresh off the griddle? Terrible Theresa smiles and says, “I'll take the one in the middle.”

Internal rhyme: when a poet uses rhyming words inside a line of poetry.

Example: “Double, double toil and trouble, Fire burn and caldron bubble.”
