Cynthia in the Snow
by Gwendolyn Brooks
It SHUSHES
It hushes
The loudness in the road.
It flitter-twitters,
And laughs away from me.
It laughs a lovely whiteness,
And whitely whirls away,
To be
Some otherwhere,
Still white as milk or shirts,
So beautiful it hurts.

Answer:

1. The narrator must be Cynthia, as the poem is set in first person.

2. The poem is set in winter because the title is Cynthia in the snow.

3. Onomatopoeia and personification, because it is a sound as well as an action that an inanimate object cannot perform.

4. This is an example of a simile, since it uses the word ¨as¨ to compare two different objects.

5. Alliteration and personification. The letter ¨w¨ is repeated and once again, it illustrates action.

6. I think its end rhyme, but im not completely sure.
