Question

Discuss five poetic devices used in the poem the song of the women of my land

Answer 1

Explanation:

1. Assonance-An assonance is a repetition of the vowel sounds in the same line such as the sounds of /i/ in “its fire in my eyes”.

2. Alliteration- An alliteration is the repetition of the same consonant sounds in the same lines of the poetry such as the use of /f/ in “fall”, “fire” and “flash.” This use has enhanced the musical quality of the lines.

3. Personification- Maya has used a personification that means to use emotions for inanimate objects. She has personified joy in the third stanza of the poem where it is stated, “the joy in my feet” as if feet are human, and that they rejoice while dancing or walking.
