English poem poetry writen by pablo neruda appreciation
Answers
Personification: The poet personifies the poetry as person and states “Poetry arrived”
Inversion: instead of saying he went in search of poem, he says “Poetry arrived in search of me. I don't know,”
Imagery: “by saying that he was summoned “from the branches of night; violent fires” invokes the strong images. The poem is filled with images.
His use of style and dictation is quite formal because he does not want the readers to miss out the importance of happening.
The rhythm and the form seem to vary from stanza to stanza because the poet wants us to emphasize on those words which he had done. The rhythm is also smooth but, the tone is intense.
Alliteration: “Something started in my Soul”; “fever or forgotten wings” are some of the alliteration which gives us the impact the poet has gone through.
Paradox: “ Pure wisdom of someone who knows nothing”
Hyperbole: we have exaggerated statements like, “There I was without a face”; “My heart broke loose on the wind”; “I wheeled with the stars” etc.
