cope with memories. In the poem Postcard from Kashmir‚ by Agha Shanhid Ali‚ and Elena‚ by Pat Mora‚ both authors must do just that. In fact‚ both writers effectively incorporate powerful language and techniques in their poems to embody a nostalgic feeling for what once was the past‚ and for what they consider to be an unfulfilled present. In Postcard from Kashmir the speaker yearns to go back to what they once called their home. They call a postcard their home‚ and say in lines four and

Calvocoressi It isn’t how we look up close so much as in dreams. Our giant is not so tall‚ our lizard boy merely flaunts crusty skin- not his fault they keep him in a crate and bathe him maybe once a week. When folks scream or clutch their hair and poke at us and glare and speak of how we slithered up from Hell‚ it is themselves they see: the preacher with the farmer’s girls (his bulging eyes‚ their chicken legs) or the mother lurching towards the sink‚ a baby quivering in her gnarled hands.

All Wilfred Owens’s poems seem to rhyme. The ends of the alternate lines rhyme in most all of his poems for example in "The send off" The 1st line ends in way and the 3rd in gay.
