POETRY Jack Prelutsky, Children’s Poet Laureate Award Winner “Children seem naturally drawn to poetry - it's some combination of the rhyme, rhythm, and the words themselves.”

What is Poetry? Webster’s dictionary defines poetry as: “writing that formulates a concentrated imaginative awareness of experience in language chosen and arranged to create a specific emotional response through meaning, sound, and rhythm” What is meaning?

Poetry provides meaning and evokes emotion Snow on the Trees Somebody painted The trees last night Crept in and colored them White on white. When I awoke, The tree limbs shone As white as milk, As bleached as bone As white as wool, As chalk, as ceam As white as ghosts In a white-night dream. Just one day past They wore dark brown Today they wear A diamond crown. Somebody painted The trees last night With ivory paintpots White on white. Jane Yolen uses similies, alliteration, and personification to create meaning and evoke emotion.

Sound Welcome to the Night To all of you who crawl and creep who buzz and chirp and hoot and peep who wake at dusk and throw off sleep: Welcome to the night. To you who make the forest sing, who dip and dodge on silent wing, who flutter, hover, clasp, and cling Welcome to the night! Come feel the cool and shadowed breeze, come smell your way among the trees, come touch rough bark and leathered leaves: Welcome to the night. The night’s a sea of dappled dark, the night’s a feast of sound and spark, the night’s a wild, enchanted park. Welcome to the night! Alliteration, assonance, and consonance create the sounds that place the reader in “the night”. These sounds create such visual images as bats flying and insects chirping.

Rhythm Meter in a poem implies a regular rhythm The Turkey Shot Out of the Oven The turkey shot out of the oven and rocketed into the air, it knocked every plate off the table and partly demolished a chair. It ricocheted into a corner and burst with a deafening boom, then splattered all over the kitchen completely obscuring the room. It stuck to the walls and the windows, it totally coated the floor, there was turkey attached to the ceiling where there’d never been turkey before. It blanketed every appliance, It smeared every saucer and bowl, there wasn’t a way I could stop it, that turkey was out of control. I scraped and I scrubbed with displeasure, and thought with chagrin as I mopped, that I’d never again stuff a turkey with popcorn that hadn’t been popped.

Limerick Usually told in five lines, these humorous poems belong to the nonsense class. Beware that you don’t get too chummy with Martin McIver the mummy. He has termites and moths inside of his cloths and he’d rather have YOU in his tummy.

Nursery Rhymes Humpty Dumpty Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall Humpty Dumpty had a great fall All the king’s horses and all the king’s men, Couldn’t put Humpty together again. Nursery rhymes utilize poetic devices such as assonance, consonance, and alliteration. In this rhyme Humpty Dumpty is personified.

Nursery Rhyme & Allusion In order to appreciate these rhymes, one must be familiar with the traditional Mother Goose rhymes. The Itsy-Bitsy Spider The itsy-bitsy spider Climbed up the warthog’s snout. The warthog grabbed a hankie And tried to blow it out. The little bloke was blasted All the way to Spain, So the itsy-bitsy spider Did not go there again.
