【Poem Reading Tuesday】Assonance and HW：【Friend】
Assonance is the repetition of the vowel sound across words within the lines of the poem creating internal rhymes. Examples of assonance across words include: crying time; hop-scotch; great flakes; between trees; and, the kind knight rides by.
Very skilled poets use assonance in poetry to change the mood of the poem. Long vowel sounds will decrease the energy at that point in the poem and make the mood more serious. Higher vowel sounds will increase the energy and lighten the mood.
Example：
Bells by Edgar Allan Poe
......
Hear the mellow wedding bells,
Golden bells!
What a world of happiness their harmony foretells
......
