Description

There is no regular rhyme scheme, though the poet uses assonant and consonant rhyme throughout, sometimes in the form of couplets, as in ‘out’ and ‘shout’ in lines five and six. Later ‘clever and 'over’ are a consonantly rhyming couplet. These have the effect of pulling together and unifying this free-verse poem.

Hide N Seek' is a fun game for kids and teenagers where you can hide yourself or play as a seeker.

As a teacher, Mr. Stricter has a lot of good qualities, presumably, but animal identification isn’t one of them. A class science project—hatching tadpoles—ends with all but one of them being released Continue reading » This epistolary story opens with Sophia sitting in a time-out that she is not going to take lying down.

The child talks to himself in a stream of consciousness. He gives himself commands, as in ‘don’t come out just yet’ and speculates what the other children are thinking and doing, referring to them in the third person. He speaks to himself in the second person, as in ‘you’ve never heard them sound so hushed…’. Fear and discomfort creep in, as in the personified ‘darkening garden watches’. At moments of tension he uses direct speech, to create immediacy. Finally the poem ends with a question mark. All his aspirations, his pride at winning are undermined by the uncertain outcome of the game. The poem comprises one undivided stanza of twenty-seven lines. The continuous flow of language reflects the flowing and changing emotions of the child. He (if we assume it is a boy) doesn’t pause or consciously change thought processes, so nor should the poem.

Hide and Seek” is a song by Imogen Heap, released as the first single from her second album, Speak for Yourself. Lines 12-13: “They're moving closer, someone stumbles, mutters; / Their words and laughter scuffle, and they're gone.” In this collection of 20 brief offerings that nod affectionately to scary-story tropes, Rissi ( Nobody Knows but You) puts an enjoyably spooky spin on mundane and traditionally pleasurable childhood experiences, while occasional art by Godina maintains the eerie atmosphere. Using straightforward prose and employing a mix of narrative forms—letters home, verse, text messages, a dog’s point of view, and a play, among others—Rissi turns such topics as a friendly game of hide-and-seek between siblings (“Hide and Don’t Seek”), a summer camp session (“Truly Delicious”), a long-kept confidence (“The Secret”), and a Christmas gift (“Beatrice”) toward the anxious and uncertain. “The Best Teacher at Pleasant Hill Oak Elementary,” meanwhile, provides a refreshing twist on the “unusual teacher” idea. Though some stories succeed better than others, and several end abruptly, the sheer variety of creepy concepts, unsettling moments interspersed with humor, and gotcha twists will appeal to younger middle grade readers who are ready for a gateway into horror fiction—and a book to read around the campfire.

In 2018, NPR ranked this as the #147 greatest song by a female or nonbinary artist in the 21st century, saying:
