REMINDER: Literary devices test on Monday. The test will take half a period. You will be expected to read a poem and pick out literary devices. You should be able to define literary devices.
Come prepared knowing: symbol, imagery, assonance, alliteration, slang, jargon, onomatopoeia, personification, figurative language, end rhyme, approximate (slant) rhyme, internal rhyme, repetition, simile, metaphor, idiom, and allusion.

Parody of "shall i compare thee to a summer's day" comments:
I liked this poem, because I felt like i could relate to it. It's about a summer love, and it follows in little detail the course of the relationship. I liked how it used modern language, but still followed the rules of a sonnet.
Sonnet - Billy Collins

I liked this one, because it practically counted down the lines to the end. I also liked how it added in the 12th line with the characters. Even though i dont know what it is alluding to (if anything...), discribes the end of the process of the poet, the winding down at the end of the day.

I liked reading "Sonnet" by Billy Collins. It gave instructions on how to write a sonnet and showed how easy it is to write a sonnet now compared to Elizabethan times.
