POETRY UNIT

RHYTHM A pattern of recurring strong and weak syllabic stress in the flow of poetry

RHYTHM CONT… Get set, ready now, jump right in Bounce and kick and giggle and spin Listen to the rope when it hits the ground Listen to that clappedy-slappedy sound Jump right up when it tells you to Come back down, whatever you do Count to a hundred, count to ten Start to count all over again That’s what jumping is all about Get set, get ready, jump right out!

RHYME AND SOUND Identical (or very similar) recurring final sounds in words at the ends of lines Couplet- two rhyming lines in succession Triplet-Three rhyming lines in sequence

REPETITION Adds to the rhythmic quality of a poem Emphasizes the sounds of words Makes poetry exciting

HARLEM- WALTER DEAN MYERS There is lilt, Tempo, cadence A language of darkness Darkness unknown Darkness sharpened at Mintons Darkness lightened at the Cotton Club Sent flying from Abyssinian Baptist To the Apollo.

ASSONANCE Involves repetition The poet repeats identical or similar vowel sounds to create a partial rhyme The final consonant sound is usually different

STORM- KRISTINE O’CONNELL GEORGE Late in the afternoon The wind begins to blow Whistle-sharp, wet and cold. Whitecaps lace the lake. Uneasy, the birds Dart from tree to tree As heavy black clouds Rumble towards us, An oncoming train Hauling a thunderous Load of storm. Rain!

CONSONANCE Also refers to the repetition of sounds The repetition of final consonant sounds in words with different vowels The words do not rhyme, but they help create harmony within the poem The Drum Daddy says the world Is a drum Tight and hard And I told him I’m gonna beat out my own rhythm

LAYOUT OR LINE BREAKS Poetry looks different than prose The lines of poetry often reflect meaning Line breaks are carefully designed to signal to the reader the meaningful phrase units that represent deeper meanings

White space in a poem signal the reader to take a breath or pause It leaves time to reflect

TONE The poet’s attitude as revealed in the poem Tone is highly related to mood- how the poem makes the reader feel
