Ms. Gorman has an extraordinary ear for subtle rhymes. Watch or reread aloud "The Hill We Climb" and listen for them. Which stood out for you? - In the title

We've braved the belly of the beast,

We've learned that quiet isn't always peace,

and the norms and notions

of what just is

isn't always just-ice.

Explanation:

The rhymes in the boldened phrases above were particularly interesting to me.

Gorman used alliteration in her repetition of the letters 'b' in the first phrase. This created a rhyme that appeals to the ears.

We also see her use of similar sounding words in the second highlighted phrase. These include;

norms and notions

just is

just-ice

The use of these excellent rhymes helps in the remembrance of what is said. The first highlighted phrase also paints a picture or imagery that imprints the ideas of the poet in the mind of the reader.
