Poetry Friday: Sonic Devices

<p>Poetry Friday: Sonic Devices</p><p>Assignment: Read the following poem by Robert Hayden and answer the questions 1-7 (including the CEE paragraph) that we reviewed last week as part of our discussion of Poetry Analysis.</p><p>Those Winter Sundays Sundays too my father got up early And put his clothes on in the blueback cold, then with cracked hands that ached from labor in the weekday weather made banked fires blaze. No one ever thanked him.</p><p>I'd wake and hear the cold splintering, breaking. When the rooms were warm, he'd call, and slowly I would rise and dress, fearing the chronic angers of that house,</p><p>Speaking indifferently to him, who had driven out the cold and polished my good shoes as well. What did I know, what did I know of love's austere and lonely offices?
