Final answer:

Matching poetry terms with their descriptions involves recognizing free verse (no meter and rhyme), octave (first eight lines of a sonnet), suggestion, alliteration (repeated initial consonants), simile, irony, trimeter, archetype, and assonance.

Step-by-step explanation:

The terms to match to their descriptions in poetry are as follows: Free Verse is the term for poetry with no meter and no rhyme. The Octave refers to the first eight lines of a sonnet. Suggestion is the term for implication or hinting at something without expressly stating it.

Alliteration is the term for repeated initial consonants in a sequence of words. Simile is the term for one thing being like another using 'like' or 'as'. Irony is the term for an incongruity or inconsistency between expectations and reality. Trimeter describes a line that consists of three metrical feet. An Archetype is the term for a perfect model or quintessential example. Finally, Assonance is the term for the repetition of the same vowel sounds with different consonant sounds.
