Show transcript
In the poem ‘I’m an Orchestra’, Laura Mucha compares the emotional life of a human to an orchestra. Poets might use devices such as repetition, rhyme or alliteration to enhance the sound of the poem read aloud. A metaphor is a way of describing something by saying that it is something else. Alliteration is when words that begin with the same sound are placed close together. Marking up a poem for performance involves adding notes to guide delivery, emphasising elements like tone & pace.
