The wind is now
a roaring, smashing
monster of destruction,
raking all man's work
from the valleys,
from the vales,
and sends them spinning,
broken flying -
but all of that is
not its core,
its center is in truth
eternal stillness
bright blue skies
and all you hear
are gentle whispers
far away
and unimportant.

"Walt Whitman's 'O Captain! My Captain!' is a poem that uses synecdoche, where the phrase 'my captain' represents President Abraham Lincoln. Emily Dickinson's 'Hope is the thing with feathers' also contains synecdoche in the line 'And sings the tune without the words' to symbolize the concept of hope."

A metaphoric poem is a poem that compares two different things not using the word "like" or "as".

Synecdoche is a special kind of metonymy in which a thing is names after its part or, vice versa, a part is denoted by the whole thing. It is used to avoid repetition or to enrich poetic imagery. There are three kinds of synecdoches:A) the pars pro toto synecdoche, in which a an object is called after its part, for example many a dayB) the singularis pro plurali synecdoche, in which a group of people is represented by a single representative, a child is cruelC) the totum pro parte synecdoche that denotes a part by naming the whole thing, like in my family arrived instead of the members of my family arrived.

One example of using synecdoche in a sentence is "The White House announced a new policy," where "the White House" represents the U.S. government as a whole. In this case, "the White House" is a part of the government that is used to refer to the entire government.
