Red spatula oh how I love you, Whenever I see you I never feel blue. Whenever I use you I always feel glad. As long as you're with me I'll never be sad. I got you for Christmas and you make me smile. To get you I'd walk for over a mile. You are the love of my life and I love you so much. We will always be together and never out of touch. You are my sunshine and my best friend. My love for you, spatula, will never end. What is wrong with this ode stanza?

of accented and unaccented syllables in a line of poetry. example: I like to go out in the sun. I jump and dance and scream and run. So after school I head outside...

or line is repeated for emphasis or unity. example: The sun, the sun, the sun, the sun, The reason summer's so much fun. I'm leaving now to go and play...

beginning of words. Sounds, NOT letters!!! example: The sun, a lovely sight to see, Every day in full glory. Outside my window, oh so bright...

imagery

imagery imagery consists of words and phrases that appeal to a reader's five senses. Writers use sensory details to help the reader imagine how things: look feel smell sound taste

T - P - C - A - S -

T - Title What will the poem be about? Make a prediction based just on the title. Go deeper - Ask: What about that topic?

P - Paraphrase What is the literal meaning of the poem? One of the biggest 
problems that students often make in 
poetry analysis is jumping to 
conclusions before understanding 
what is actually taking place in the 
poem. When you paraphrase a poem, 
write in your own words exactly 
what happens in the poem. your paraphrase should have a similar 
number of lines as the poem. Paraphrase - put it 
in your own words. 
Looking at the 
literal meaning.

C - Connotation Look for figurative language and sound devices, and 
think about how they contribute to the overall meaning 
in the poem. It is not necessary that you identify all the 
poetic devices within the poem. The ones you do 
identify should be seen as a way of supporting the 
conclusions you are going to draw about the poem.

(the writer's attitude toward his / her subject) A - Attitude (tone) (the writer's attitude toward 
his / her subject) How does the author feel about the subject of 
the poem? What words do they use to reveal this?

S - Shift Look for the following things that may provide a clue: What is a shift? A change, or a turn Look for the following things that may provide a clue: • key transition words, (but, yet, however, although) • punctuation (dashes, periods, colons, ellipsis) • stanza divisions • changes in line or stanza length or both

T - Title (again) Now look at the title again, but this time on 
an interpretive level. What new insight does the title provide in 
understanding the poem? What would be a good alternate title?

T - Theme What subject or subjects does the poem address? What do you learn about the subject? What idea does the poet want you take away with you 
concerning this subject? Remember that the theme of any work of literature is 
stated in a complete sentence. Avoid cliches and 
remember, themes are NOT selection specific. They are 
BROAD lessons about life!!!
