Lyrical Poetry Objective: I will learn the origins, purpose and format of lyrical poetry

What is the origin? In ancient Greece, when a chorus sang or spoke more personally and accompanied themselves on the lyre, the verse was called a lyric

What is a lyrical poem? It is a poem that includes personal and individual emotion http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-M8Hi3vNKM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdrRLTgavus http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMOGaugKpzs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhsTJzpI1UY It does not tell a story as does a narrative poem Most poetry as we think of it is lyrical poetry

What are many subdivisions of lyrical poetry? The song – is the weakest form because they do not achieve a true poetic level. This is due to the lack of poetic devices used. The hymn – Is a spiritual form of lyrical poetry The Elegy – Is a formal verse focusing on death or any other solemn subject

Continued….. Use lots of imagery, and think about rhythm Step 3: If the poem has a chorus, make your point here. Let the chorus punctuate your feeling with a statement about what it means. You can repeat this over and over (refrain). Note: you don’t have to use the music; however, it may help you formulate your thoughts.

Steps to Writing a Lyrical Poem You need to think about a time of great emotion or personal growth Make sure it is a snapshot, but don’t tell a complete story (remember that’s a narrative) Write down this memory Step 2: Put these pieces of the memory into phrases Do not write down complete sentences. Instead, let the broad ideas collide with details

Requirements You must use three sound devices You must rewrite the lyrics through the second chorus OR if you do not have a song, write 20-25 lines with a chorus that repeats twice.

“Dying” by Emily Dickinson I heard a fly buzz when I died; The stillness round my form Was like the stillness in the air Between the heaves of storm. The eyes beside had wrung them dry, And breaths were gathering sure For that last onset, when the king Be witnessed in his power. I willed my keepsakes, signed away What portion of me I Could make assignable,-and then There interposed a fly, With blue, uncertain, stumbling buzz, Between the light and me; And then the windows failed, and then I could not see to see
