Figures of speech used in the poem 'The Sea'

Explanation:

Line 1: The sea is a hungry dog

Metaphor – used to compare to equate or relate two unrelated entities with one being a literal term and the other being the figurative term.

The poet makes the reader imagine, view, and compare the sea which is the literal term to the figurative term of dog. Furthermore, the poet compares the characteristics of the sea to that of a hungry dog to indicate that the sea is rough and aggressive just like how a hungry dog behaves rude and aggressive.

Line 2: Giant and grey

Visual Imagery: used to create a visual image of a thing through vivid images, pictures, scenes etc.  

The words giant and grey makes the reader imagine and view the sea with the resemblance of a giant grey dog both physically and characteristically. This makes one to imagine the sea to be huge and grey in color which indicates the sea’s rough cannibal nature.

Line 3: He rolls on the beach all day  

Personification – used to personify abstract and inanimate things with human qualities.

Onomatopoeia - Endows human or animate qualities to inanimate or abstract things and is used to relate both.

The poet refers to the subject of the poem is a ‘he’ although it is actually a sea which is an inanimate thing and relates it to a male dog.
