Anaphora is a literary device in which a word or phrase is repeated at the beginning of a sentence/line or paragraph/stanza, as in Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech ( https://www.gilderlehrman.org/sites/default/files/inline-pdfs/king.dreamspeech.e... ). Additional examples can be found in the following link: https://literarydevices.net/anaphora/ Your assignment: Write a poem about any topic using Anaphora to maximize effect.
