Waves
They tickle my toes
Sing while they crash on the shore
They dance around me
By Tia Davison
Analyzation
The topic of this poem is waves on the beach. It is a haiku so there are five syllables in the first line, seven in the second and five again in the last. It is about nature because that is traditionally what haikus are about. There is no rhyming scheme. Alliteration is a device used in the first line with tickle and toes. Imagery is used, you can picture waves lapping at your feet. Personification is also used because waves don't actually sing as they reach shore or dance around you.
