What it Does Have
John Gray & William Woodsworth

His poetry is characterized by sensual imagery. Most commonly shown in his odes.
John is probably one of the most famous or the most famous poet in the world.
Originated in Ancient Greece.
Ode uses different sounds of words and different kinds of imagery with tricks with words to make you think about the object or a person a different way.
For Example: Assonance (Sounds that sound the same. Eg. A snake hisses as it slides through the grass.
It also uses metaphors and similes, most commonly metaphors since they are stronger. By stronger I mean, with similes you are remembering an image (the sea is like glass) but with metaphors you're imagination starts working (sea is glass, makes you think, the sea isn't glass but yet you picture a smooth sea).
John Gray
Born: March 2, 1866 in London.

The Greeks would sing odes in their choral songs.
