In the two poems The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost and Maggie and Milly and Molly and May by e.e. cummings, the authors use extended metaphors of life, contradicting rhyme schemes, and nature symbolism to discuss the themes of losing youth, but also of finding identity. The central theme of both poems is the discussion of life through the use of an extended metaphor. Instead of using specified realistic scenarios, the author of TRNT uses the common analogy of the two paths of life, as seen…

diction in order to clearly express her thoughts. The poem’s rhyme scheme is ABAB, CDCD, and EFEF. However, all but one of these rhymes are slant rhymes. This again shows Dickinson's willingness to contradict standard poetic styles. She includes rhyme, which creates the song-like reading that is both enjoyable and impactful, while still having the diction to express meaningful ideas. This shown by the fact that she is willing to use actual rhyme in the first quatrain. In other words, she…

"The Fireplace Sweeper" involves six quatrains, each after the AABB rhyme conspire, with two rhyming couplets for every quatrain.

The fast-paced motion that the perfect rhymes create can…

Reed utilizes the tool of rhyme throughout the poem because he occasionally adds words at the end of lines that rhyme with each other. For example, in stanza one line six and seven he states "A diamond crucifix in his ear Is used to help ward off the fear" (Reed Stanza 1). The word "ear" and "fear" rhyme with each other, and is used to create a sense of flow within the poem. This…
