Poetic Devices and Terms Mrs. Stuckey Eng. 9C

Literal Language Meaning exactly what you say My name is Ms. Dombrow This is Lake Shore High School

Figurative Language Expressions that are not literally true All of the following terms are elements of figurative language

Simile vs. Metaphor Simile Metaphor Comparing two unlike things using “like” or “as” “Life is like a box of chocolates” Metaphor Comparing two unlike things without using “like” or “as” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Stz7MTo23r0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dI9EgzgXskg

Examples of Metaphors “Love Me Like You Do” You're the light, you're the night You're the color of my blood You're the cure, you're the pain “Everything” You're a falling star, You're the get away car. You're the line in the sand when I go too far. You're the swimming pool, on an August day. And you're the perfect thing to say. You're a carousel, you're a wishing well, And you light me up, when you ring my bell. You're a mystery, you're from outer space, You're every minute of my everyday. Pick two metaphors. Analyze and explain what you think the musicians are trying to say about the people they love.

Personification Giving human qualities to non-human things The flame on the candle danced on the wall. The gold watch was calling my name at the mall. The sun smiled down on my summer skin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JY7s3C6aSk

Sick "I cannot go to school today," Said little Peggy Ann McKay Sick "I cannot go to school today," Said little Peggy Ann McKay. "I have the measles and the mumps, A gash, a rash and purple bumps. My mouth is wet, my throat is dry, I'm going blind in my right eye. My tonsils are as big as rocks, I've counted sixteen chicken pox And there's one more - that's seventeen, And don't you think my face looks green? My leg is cut, my eyes are blue - It might be instamatic flu. I cough and sneeze and gasp and choke, I'm sure that my left leg is broke - My hip hurts when I move my chin, My belly button's caving in, My back is wrenched, my ankle's sprained, My 'pendix pains each time it rains. My nose is cold, my toes are numb, I have a sliver in my thumb. My neck is stiff, my spine is weak, I hardly whisper when I speak. My tongue is filling up my mouth, I think my hair is falling out. My elbow's bent, my spine ain't straight, My temperature is one-o-eight. My brain is shrunk, I cannot hear, There is a hole inside my ear. I have a hangnail, and my heart is - what? What's that? What's that you say? You say today is ... Saturday? G'bye, I'm going out to play!"
