What are the poetic devices used in the Beatles song let it be?

Answer 1

The first and most obvious of the poetic devices in AHDN is the rhyme scheme. The rhyme scheme in AHDN is AABBC. Another poetic device in A Hard Day's Night is simile, "And I've been working like a dog".

Answer 2

• in the line "possessing and caressing me" there is consonance which is where there is a repeated consonant sound at the end of words placed near each other usually on the same line.
• repetition of the line"nothing's gonna change my world"
• imagery in the lines "images of broken light" because that relates to sight and "sounds of laughter" relates to sense of hearing.
• consonance again in the line "inciting and inviting me"
• repetition of the line "across the universe"
• imagery: they slither as they slip away across the universe" (theres that line again! lol)
• simile: words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup
• personification: thoughts meander ( thoughts cant meander but people can) like a restless wind (wind cant be restless)
• simile: thoughts meander like a restless wind (ha. there's 2 in that line!)
• hyperbole: shines around me like a million suns
• simile: limitless undying love which shines around like a million suns.
• hyperbole: endless rain

tah dah! :D

Answer 3

Repetitions of sounds are found frequently in the song, and alliteration, consonance, and assonance are used. In the first verse, alliteration with the consonant "s" is present: "sad song". Assonance is also used in the song various times with the phrases: "anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain", "for well you know that's it's a fool who plays it cool", and "don't you know that its just you, hey Jude, you'll do". Epistrophe, a repetition of words and phrases, is also evident within the song. The song says, "make it better" at the end of the second and fourth line in the first verse.
