I believe my greates skill is drawing. Throughout my life, I have gone from a young child who scribbles with crayons to an artist interesting in the sketches of M.C. Esher and other artists. I think it hit me, that I loved drawing, when my lower school art teacher, (insert name), taught me about Henri Matisse. She had read us one of his books and I was enamored with the illustrations! I just couldnt get over it. I later came over to her and asked if I could borrow the book. She told me I had to take special care of it and return it the next day. Oh! How I was excited! I spent the rest of the day turning the pages and looking at the drawings, watching them come alive in my mind. My mother found me with the book later that night and promptly signed me up for a drawing class. Yes, that was the day a started my drawing career. I wish I remembered the book title! (Teachers name) really changed the way I viewed art and gave me the inpiration to improve my drawing.
Good luck and vote me brainiest!
Answer:
The author uses anaphoras, free verse and personification
Explanation:
The style and technique used by Carl Salsburg in this poem is a free verse style, using anaphoras to create emphasis and personification.
To use free verse means that within the poem, there is no regular rhyme scheme or meter.
Also, anaphoras are a form of creating emphasis in the poem, by repeating certain verses like "Shovel them under and let me work, I am the grass; I cover all." Similarly, the author enlists some battlefields across Europe, using the same format. "Pile the bodies high at Austerlitz and Waterloo. And pile them high at Gettysburg, And pile them high at Ypres and Verdun. " Without the constant repetition, the reader may overlook the focal point of the poem.
Last, the personification of the grass in the poem. By talking like a person and acting out, the grass creates symbolism with emotional meaning. It is about life after death, the constant change of life and the forgetfulness.
Without all these elements the poem wouldn't have the meaning that it does, the depth that the author communicates.
