Rhyme Schemes

"On the departure platform" by Thomas Hardy reflects on the emotions and internal struggles of a departing traveler trying to bid farewell to loved ones. The poem conveys a sense of longing, regret, and the transient nature of human connections. Hardy uses vivid imagery and poignant language to capture the bittersweet moment of departure and the uncertainties of what lies ahead.

The rhyme scheme of "To Hélène" by Ronsard is ABABCCDDEEFF. This sonnet follows a Petrarchan (or Italian) structure, with the octave (first 8 lines) having a different rhyme scheme from the sestet (last 6 lines).

The rhyme scheme in the given example is AABB. This means that the first two lines rhyme with each other, and the last two lines rhyme with each other.

that is no country for old men. The young

Rhymes usually occur in the same places throughout a poem. This regularity is known as the rhyme pattern or rhyme scheme. You can direct a rhyme scheme by assigning letters to designate the words at the end of lines. The same letter is used for words having the same sounds. Thus, a simple rhyme scheme would be abcb. This pattern shows that the words at the end of lines two and four rhyme, but that the words at the end of lines one and three do not.

In the poem, "On Killing a Tree" by Gieve Patel, the poet wants to say something about the cutting of trees. According to him, it will take too much time to kill a tree. It is not just a simple jab: a quick stab or blow: to do the job. The tree has grown slowly consuming the earth: eating and drinking from it: rising out of the earth, feeding upon the crust of the earth, absorbing: taking in: innumerable years of sunlight, air water, out of the trees' leprous hide: resembling the skin of a leper (here) refers to the discolored bark of the tree: the newly formed leaves begin to sprout.

A woodcutter may hack: cut or chop with repeated and regular blows: and chop, but still this alone will not do the job. The tree does not seem to feel any kind of pain because the bleeding bark seemed to heal all the time. The trunk of the tree from close to the ground will produced curled green twigs that will rise from the miniature bows. If their growth is not checked, then they will expand again and grow to their former sizes.

The most important thing to do while killing a tree is to ensure that the root is pulled out of the anchoring: source of security and stability: earth. The tree is to be rope-tied and pulled out: snapped out: pulled apart or break with a snapping sound: or it should be pulled out entirely from the earth cave.

Finally, the strength of the tree will be exposed, from the very source where the white and wet, which is the most sensitive part which has been hidden for many years inside the earth. Then it is only a matter of scorching: burning superficially so as to discolor or damage the texture of: and choking: here drying up: in the sun. In the end, the tree will go through a process of browning, hardening, twisting and withering. Then ultimately, the tree gets killed.

The poem "Mowing" by Robert Frost has an irregular rhyme scheme, with no fixed pattern. It contains various rhymes such as ABAB, AABB, and ABCB throughout the poem. This lack of a consistent rhyme scheme contributes to the natural and conversational tone of the poem.

An "AABB" Rhyme Scheme is a poem in which the first two lines and second two lines rhyme creating a pattern

Example:

The cat on a mat - A

played with my hat - A

under the yellow sun - B

on a day of great fun - B

A rhyme scheme is just a literary device for a structure of a poem. A capital letter is assigned to each stanza in accordance with the ending word. The first line is always A, if the second line rhymes with A, it too is also A. If it does not rhyme with line A then it gets B, and so on.

No, poems do not have to rhyme. Free verse poetry, for example, often does not have a rhyme scheme and focuses more on the flow of ideas and emotions. Rhyming is just one element of poetry, and many poets choose to experiment with different structures and forms.

The most common rhyme scheme for haiku poetry is a 5-7-5 syllable pattern, where the first line has 5 syllables, the second line has 7 syllables, and the third line has 5 syllables. Haikus typically do not follow a rhyme scheme like traditional Western poetry.

The main purpose is the primary reason for doing something or the central goal that a task or activity is intended to achieve. It is what drives and guides the actions or intentions behind a particular endeavor.

This commonly refers to achieving an "A" grade on an assignment or evaluation. It signifies exceptional performance or mastery in the task or subject matter.

Taufiq Rafat's poem "Reflections" serves as a response to T.S. Eliot's "The Waste Land" by presenting a contrasting perspective on modernity and human connections. While "The Waste Land" portrays a fragmented and desolate world, "Reflections" offers moments of beauty and hope amidst chaos, emphasizing the possibility of finding meaning and connection in a disordered world. Rafat's poem can be seen as a critique of Eliot's bleak outlook, offering a more optimistic view on the human experience.

A rainy day is dull and gloomy. It rains all day long. The sky is overcast with thick clouds. The sky is not seen. None can go out without an umbrella. Water stand on roads and roads become muddy and slippery.

In "Little Boy Crying" by Mervyn Morris, some metaphors include comparing the father's strictness to a "cloud of rain" symbolizing harsh discipline, and describing the child's tears as "the flood that does not give up." These metaphors help convey the emotional intensity and parental authority in the poem.

Some words that rhyme with "together" are weather, whether, leather, and tether.

His parents sacrificed to board him at school in town, and to keep him away from the farm. At his graduation, his parents blushed with pride, and think that their wishes came true. The son did not say anything when his parents made the decisions. The son did not like what his parents want him to be.

In literature, a meter is the rhythmic structure of a verse or line of poetry. It is determined by the pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables in a line, which creates a sense of rhythm and melody. Meters are often used to enhance the musicality and flow of poetry.
