What is best example of consonance poem?

There isn't a single "best" example of a consonance poem because the effectiveness of consonance depends heavily on the poet's skill and the intended effect. Consonance is a stylistic device, not a form in itself, so poems don't *primarily* rely on it in the way sonnets rely on rhyme scheme and meter. A poem might use consonance effectively alongside other poetic devices.

However, we can look at examples that *effectively* utilize consonance to create a particular mood or sound. Consider this short example (original):

> The silken snake slid silently,

> Past sleeping stones, so stilly.

The repetition of the "s" sound ("silken," "snake," "slid," "silently," "sleeping," "stones," "so," "stilly") creates a sense of smoothness and quiet, mirroring the movement of the snake. The alliteration (repetition of initial consonant sounds) complements the consonance, enhancing the effect.

To find more robust examples, you'd need to look for poems that deliberately use repeated consonant sounds *within* words or at the *ends* of words to create a specific auditory or emotional impact. Many poems use consonance subtly, so finding poems *explicitly* showcasing it as a central technique is less common. You'd be better served by searching for poems by poets known for their attention to sound and musicality (like Edgar Allan Poe or Gerard Manley Hopkins) and analyzing their work for the use of consonance.

In short, the "best" example is subjective and dependent on your criteria, but the key is to look for poems where repeated consonant sounds contribute meaningfully to the overall effect, rather than just being a random occurrence.
