    1. Visual Imagery: The poem is filled with vivid visual images. One example would be the detailed description of the ‘blotting paper’.
    2. Anaphora: Examples would be ‘And put the address/And begin, “Dearest Mummy,”’, and ‘And run to the post box/And now it has gone!’ where ‘and’ is repeated in the beginning of each line.
