Read the following poem and decide which two poetic devices the author
uses.
"It sushes,
It hushes,
The loudness in the road.
It flitter-twitters,
And laughs away from me.
It laughs a lovely whiteness,
And whitely whirs away
To be some otherwhere.
Still white as milk or shirts,
So beautiful it hurts."

metaphor, hyperbole
onomatopoeia, simile
