poetry response 3

Lunar paraphrase
       This poem by Robert Stevens starts with alliteration of moon mother pathos pity.  It doesn't rhyme much but it sort of has a rhythm.  This poem is personifying the moon.  The second through tenth line have assonance such as when, the, wearier, end, November.  The final and eleventh line is also the first line,  the moon is the mother of pathos and pity.  This poem also has metaphors.
       I like this poem sort.  I didn't really understand it but that is fine.  Similes weren't in it either.
