Is there any allusion in Negro Speaks of Rivers by Langston Hughes?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The sounds of the letter o in the second line of the poem, know, older, and flow, asssonate. See also the phrase muddy bosom turn. Whether or not the repetition of the long "I" sound at the beginning of nearly every line can be considered alliteration is debatable but only the line "Ancient, dusky rivers" does not begin with the sound. The word "rivers" might be considered onomotopoetic as it sounds like the flow of water it describes, but I see no attempt at onomotopia in the poem.
