Poetry Guided Notes

Poetry Poetry is a type of literature that uses the sounds, rhythms, and meanings of words to describe the world in striking and imaginative ways Comes in many forms, from structured traditional verse to contemporary poems that follow few rules

Poetry organization Poetry is divided into lines—groups of words. In some poems, the first word of each line is capitalized. A sentence in a poem may stretch over several lines. For this reason, you should NOT stop at the end of each line when reading a poem, but instead stop at the end of each sentence. Lines of poetry are organized into units of meaning called stanzas. These are like “poetry paragraphs” The lines in a stanza work to express one key idea. A blank line, called a stanza break, signals that one stanza has ended and a new stanza is beginning.

Poetry Organization (cont.) Shift—a change or a turn in the poem Can be a change in subject or opinion Usually shows us the speaker has realized something or changed in some way Commonly happen in the middle or towards the end

Poetry Sound Devices Refrain—a line or group of lines that is repeated at regular intervals in a poem; reminds readers of a key idea, image, or event Rhythm—the “beat” of a poem Rhyme—the repetition of vowel and consonant sounds at the ends of words (ex: tin and pin) Rhyme scheme—pattern of rhyme in a poem

Poetry Sound Devices (cont.) Alliteration—the repetition of consonant sounds in the beginnings of words (ex: slippery slope) Repetition—the use of any element of language (sound, word, or phrase) more than once Onomatopoeia—the use of words that imitate sounds (ex: splat, hiss, gurgle, buzz, pow)

Poetic Language Imagery—creating vivid word pictures using words that appeal to the five senses Figurative language—language that is not meant to be taken literally; 3 most common types of figurative language are similes, metaphors, and personification. Simile—uses the words like or as to compare to seemingly unlike things Ex: His hands were as cold as steel. Metaphor—describes one thing as if it were something else Ex: My chores were a mountain waiting to be climbed. Personification—gives human qualities to a nonhuman subject Ex: The fingertips of the rain tapped a steady beat on the windowpane.

Figurative Language (continued) Diction—word choice Hyperbole—an extreme exaggeration I’m so hungry I could eat a horse. It’s been raining forever!

Poetic Form and Structure Narrative—tells a story in verse; have elements similar to short stories (ex: plot and characters) Haiku—3 line Japanese form that describes something in nature 1 st and 3 rd lines each have 5 syllables, and the 2 nd line has 7 syllables Lyric—poetry that expresses the thoughts and feelings of a single speaker, often in highly musical verse Ballads—song-like poems that tell stories; often deal with adventure or romance

Poetic Form and Structure Continued Concrete—poems that are shaped to look like their subjects; poet arranges lines to create a picture on the page Limericks—humorous, rhyming, 5 line poems with a specific rhythm pattern and rhyme scheme Free Verse—poetry defined by its lack of structure; has no regular meter, rhyme, fixed line length, or specific stanza pattern
