In Robert Frost’s “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening,” the phrase “miles to go before I sleep” gains cohesion through repetition and rhythmic placement; In Gwendolyn Brooks’ “The Bean Eaters,” “They eat beans mostly, this old yellow pair” coheres through syntactic parallelism and domestic imagery; In Ocean Vuong’s “Someday I’ll Love Ocean Vuong,” the phrase “Ocean, don’t be afraid” functions as a cohesive anchor amid fragmented self-dialogue; In Sylvia Plath’s “Daddy,” the repeated “I do, I do” binds confessional intensity with nursery-rhyme cadence; In Langston Hughes’ “Harlem,” the cohesive phrase “What happens to a dream deferred?” structures the poem’s escalating metaphors.
