My Favorite Types Of Poetry

The elements of poetry that describe on the textbook are rhyme, meter, words sounds, speaker, setting, form, and symbolism. In rhyme is a word in the poem that has similar sounds and the meter is the stress syllables in the poem. Also,

As I've been taught in literature classes in elementary school, many readers believe the "ideal" poem consists of lines that do not go all the way across the page, usually only slightly more or less than halfway through; have a consistent sentence length; and

Poetry is considered to be a representational text in which one explores ideas by using symbols. Poetry can be interpreted many different ways and is even harder to interpret when the original author has come and gone. Poetry is an incredible form of literature because the way it has the ability to use the reader as part of its own power. In other words, poetry uses the feelings and past experiences of the reader to interpret things differently from one to another, sometimes not even by choice of the author. Two famous poets come to mind to anybody who has ever been in an English class, Robert Frost and E.E. Cummings. Both of these poets have had numerous famous pieces due to the fact that they both

Poems are like puzzles. The structure of it looks easy and super short to read. But it contains a great deal of meaning and the more you dig in, the more questions you get. And eventually, you get puzzled in between all the deep answers, trying to figure out which one is the part of the puzzle, and which one is not.

There are many different structures of poetry. Sonnets, ballads, and free verses are just a few of those structures. A Couple of my favorite types of music genres are rap and hip hop. I found it really relatable when Module 1 of unit 3 used rap and hip hop as an

There are many forms to write a poem, and two distinct ways are as a sonnet or a villanelle. These two style of poetry have their own way in expressing the author’s message to the reader. In fact, sonnets, according to the text, are “defined as . . . lyric[s] (reference to moods and feelings) poem of fourteen lines. The sonnet will follow one or another of several set rhyme schemes. . . . [T]he sonnet came to life as a vehicle to convey love messages and passions.” By this definition, I can say that sonnets provides the poet with a tool, which they use to share a strong, emotionally based, statement.

There are many different poems in the world some of which you may have not even been aware of. One poem that many people have heard and/or read and have not even realized is, “A Visit from St. Nicholas" or as it is known now as " 'Twas the Night before Christmas.” It comes on every holiday season and is a poem within a song. There are many different songs that are disguised as poems. I will tell you about another poem that has become a song. "A Dream Within a Dream” is a poem written by Edgar Alla (Poe)n Poe and was published in a periodical called The Flag of Our Union on March 31, 1849. It was later recorded as a musical adaption by the band, Elysian Fields in 2000. The poem has a very grim and apocalyptic feel to it as it questions the nature of reality and human existence. According to the poem, “That my days have been a dream / Yet if hope has flown away” (4-5) the author is questioning his own existence and the lack of faith he has in his own life.

poem is a quotation from or reference to a book or a author or a movie. Here are some websites

I would have to say, how a poem becomes a poem is by how it affects the reader emotionally. Poems use word and emotion in a sense to draw pictures in the readers minds. They tell a story that mirrors an event that the writer may have experienced.

My first poem is set out in several blocks, it makes the poem resemble more to an essay. The lines tend to be long. However the poet adds some short sentences such as:

Poems are just another way to voice the opinions that the authors have. You will find poems that have point of view of soldiers from both side describing events that happened on the battlefield or you have poems that voice the hurt that the union felt when the south secced. You also find poems that talk of loss and sorrow

Not all poems fall into the category of epic poetry or ballads. Some pieces are short and concise rather than lengthy and elegant. A shorter poem may focus more thoroughly on diction, or the author’s specific choice of words, rather than things such as rhyme scheme or meter. Langston Hughes poem “Suicide’s Note” is a perfect example of this. Because it is only twelve words long, every single word is important and chosen carefully. This poem uses many literary techniques, none more than diction, to achieve its purpose. which is to focus on the split-second decision that is suicide.

If one is aiming to write a poem it is useful to know by detail the basic elements of poetry to understand and control better what and how to say things, they are: voice, stanza, sound patterns, figures of speech and the poetic forms.

Poetry is a varied art form. Poetry is expression with words, using aesthetics and definition. Word choice in poetry is the single most important thing. Devices such as assonance, alliteration and rhythm work in a poem to convey a certain image or to facilitate understanding. Similes and metaphors can take two unlike objects, such as a potato and cinderblock, and if done the correct way use them to describe how Abraham Lincoln dealt with scoundrels. Poetry is beautiful. One of the best genres in poetry, let alone a great literary movement is Romanticism or the post-enlightenment Romantics.

Poetry is literary work in which the expression of feelings and ideas is given intensity by the use of distinctive style and rhythm, poems collectively or as a genre of literature. It is also a quality of beauty and intensity of emotion regarded as characteristic of poems. Poetry (poem) is something that follows a particular flow of rhythm and meter. Compare to prose, where there is no such restriction, and the content of the piece flows according to the story, a poem may or may not have a story, but definitely has structured method of writing.
