Bell Ringer: Read the following poem. In your binder, write a few sentences saying what you think the poem is talking about. “Eldorado” by Edgar Allan Poe Gaily bedight, A gallant knight, In sunshine and in shadow, Had journeyed long, Singing a song, In search of Eldorado. But he grew old- This knight so bold- And o'er his heart a shadow Fell as he found No spot of ground That looked like Eldorado. And, as his strength Failed him at length, He met a pilgrim shadow- "Shadow," said he, "Where can it be- This land of Eldorado?" "Over the Mountains Of the Moon, Down the Valley of the Shadow, Ride, boldly ride,“ The shade replied- "If you seek for Eldorado!"

Ballads A ballad is a narrative poem written in a rhythmic verse that may be sung. Ballads tell a story, often one that is dramatic or emotional. Ballads were often used to spread the news, provide entertainment, or create a “bigger than life” story.ballad Ballads are often written in quatrains (4 lines of poetry that form a unit) that have alternating rhymes and patterns of stressed syllables.quatrains

Ballads Ballad Writing Tips often have verses of four lines usually have a rhyming pattern: either abac or aabb or acbc (usually the easiest to rhyme) repetition often found in ballads entire stanzas can be repeated like a song's chorus Lines can be repeated but each time a certain word is changed a question and answer format can be built into a ballad: one stanza asks a questions and the next stanza answers the question Ballads contain a lot of dialogue. Action is often described in the first person Two characters in the ballad can speak to each other on alternating lines Sequences of "threes" often occur: three kisses, three tasks, three events, for example

Ballads Here is an example of a famous ballad: This is about the outlaw Jesse James. No one knows who originally wrote this, because it was passed down as a song for many years before being written down. Since then, many famous singers like Van Morrison have sung variations of this ballad. Try reading this in your head as we listen to it, and notice the patterns of rhyme and stressed patterns.

Review: Ballads Main Characteristics? Tells a story, event, news in an entertaining/captivating way Written in a rhythmic pattern that can be sung Often in verses of four lines Dialogue is abundant, and action is usually in first person (the person writing it is there, involved).

Odes What is an Ode? (No, not slang for odor) An ode is a lyric poem with a complicated structure that praises a person or marks an important event. Odes are generally meant to be performed with music.ode Pindar was an ancient Greek who wrote great odes. Some of them were about the Olympic games. More recently Chilean poet Pablo Neruda wrote odes to a variety of topics.

Odes Let’s take a look at an example of an Ode. The poem below appeared in the book The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Ode to Stephen Dowling Bots by Mark Twain

Odes Ok, now let’s see an Ode in action!

Odes Sweet, huh? Want MORE?? You got it !

Ode To Garbage Man by Lemon Squeezy My garbage man, he is the best, I favor him above the rest. What would we all do without him, I do believe his name is Tim. Tim is such a great, grand fellow, He takes all our junk, and rotten Jello. He clears the land of all the trash, And doesn't stop for new year's bash. He doesn't break on Christmas day, Nope, with his garbage truck he'll stay. Through the thick and through the thin, Tim will carry out our bins. So when you see the garbage man, Weather He be Tim or Stan, When you give him your garbage can, You go out shake his hand. He deserves Our full attention, Not to mention a good size pension. Well garbage men I thank you, For serving me and America too.

Loveable Pizza by Jonathan M. O beautiful pizza, I love your greasy top and your cheese too. How do you do it, to be so joyful and good as well as bad? Your topping pepperoni also is a good friend to you. You and it make a good couple. Without you, I would die. How did they create you, wonderful thing? When I bite into you, you make me feel warm and at home. But when I finish you I feel sad like I murdered you.
