Carl Sandburg Jazz Fantasia

The poem" jazz fantasia" made by Carl Sandburg was a poem about a band of jazzmen playing their instruments and to make it be the best of all time. The author makes sure to make images in your head to see how the instruments are played and to be able to play them with feelings. In the poem I found at least two or more onomatopoeias that showed the sounds of the instruments and other things. One of the sounds were the ooze of the trombones that were able to make an image in your head about the mood being quiet and smooth about the tune. Another sound that I found in the poem was that the boat going down the river was making hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo which makes you think of old movies with steam boats and how the warm summer nights are. The author was
clearly able to push the theme of the story to me as a reader because he used a lot of noise alliterations to make me see the scene of the jazz concert.has taken over.
