Poetry vocabs

10. Personification:
Definition: To make something become some one, try to say something is someone.
Example:                                        "Ah, William, we're weary of weather,"
said the sunflowers, shining with dew.
"Our traveling habits have tired us.
Can you give us a room with a view?"
They arranged themselves at the window
and counted the steps of the sun,
and they both took root in the carpet
where the topaz tortoises run. 
Significance: When you hate someone or think that person's action look like something, you are using personification to describe them.

11. Rhythm:
Definition: To repeat the sound or movement over again.
Example: Well I gotta go now.
Okay, see you later.
Sure, pal. So long.
See you. Take care.
Bye bye.
Bye bye.
Significance: Your poem would be better if you have rhythm in there.
