9. Simile: A simile is a figure of speech that compares two things by using the
words ‘like’ or ‘as.’ For example, ‘pretty as a picture.’
Metaphor: Also compares two things by saying one thing is another. For
example ‘She’s a goddess.’ Although she is not literally a goddess the reader
begins to gain a clearer picture.
Rhyme and rhythm: the rhyming of words, particularly the last in each
sentence, and the beat of the line.
Other devices include alliteration, assonance, onomatopoeia, and repetition.

10. A rhyming scheme is the patterns of rhyme in a poem, generally marked by a
system of letters, with similar rhymes given the same letter
For example if a four line poem stanza rhymes on lines 1 and 3 the scheme
would look like this: A,B,A,C. If it rhymed on lines 1 and 2, and, a different
rhyming couplet on 3 and 4 the scheme would look like this: AA,BB.
