REPETITION IN POETRY

TODAY FOR LITERACY, WE HAD A CHART WHICH WE HAD TO FILL IN WITH DIFFERENT POEMS' WORDS THAT WERE REPEATED. I HAD NO PROBLEM DOING THIS ASSIGNMENT BUT EVEN THOUGH THE AUTHOR WE HAD TO WRITE ABOUT WAS LANGSTON HUGHES, I CHOSE OTHER AUTHORS TOO SINCE THEIR POEMS WERE VERY INTERESTING AND ALSO USED REPETITION. THOSE OTHER POETS' POEMS THAT I READ WERE FROM KIDS ABOUT 14-16 YEARS OLD. AND THEY WERE GREAT FOR EXAMPLE, WHILE I WAS SEARCHING FOR POEMS WITH REPETITION I FOUND A PAGE WITH MANY POEMS. ONE POEM THAT REALLY CAUGHT MY EYE WAS A POEM CALLED, " I NEVER TOLD THIS TO ANYONE." THAT POEM REALLY CAUGHT MY EYE BECAUSE IT USED REPETITION WHEN HE WAS SAYING "BURNING HOUSE" AND FROM THE TITLE YOU COULD EASILY TELL THAT WHAT HAPPENED WHEN THE HOUSE WAS BURNING DOWN HE NEVER TOLD ANYONE ELSE.
