Elements of Poetry Poetry Unit Day 2

Poetic Elements Dealing with Word Choice RhymeImageryAlliterationRepetitionToneMood

Rhyme Repetition of sounds at the ends of words. Poets use rhyme to lend a song-like quality to their verses and to emphasize certain words or ideas Many poems contain end-rhymes or rhyming words at the ends of lines Our English language? A curious thing! Hammers don't ham and fingers don't fing, Grocers don't groce and ushers don't ush, And why is a rear called a toosh, not a tush?

Imagery Words or phrases that appeal to one or more of the 5 senses Writers use imagery to describe how their subjects look, sound, feel, taste, and smell Poets often paint images, or word pictures, that also appeal to your senses These pictures help you experience the poem fully

Alliteration The repetition of initial consonant sounds Writers use this to draw attention to certain words or ideas to imitate sounds and to create musical effects The beautiful bouquet blossomed in the bright sun.

Repetition Use, more than once, of any element of language- A sound, word, phrase clause or sentence Used in prose and poetry “T'is So Much Joy”, by Emily Dickinson ’T is so much joy! ’T is so much joy! If I should fail, what poverty! And yet, as poor as I Have ventured all upon a throw; Have gained! Yes! Hesitated so This side the victory!

Tone Writer’s attitude toward his or her audience and subject Often be described by an adjective such as formal or informal, serious or playful, bitter or ironic Factors that contribute to the tone are word choice, sentence structure, line length, rhyme, rhythm, and repetition

Mood Feeling created in the reader by a literary work or passage Similar to tone

Organization of Poetry Structure Lines Stanza Couplet

Stanza Group of lines of poetry that are usually similar in length and pattern and are separated by spaces Like a paragraph of poetry It states and develops a single main idea

Couplet In poetry, a couplet is a pair of lines (2 lines). Typically, they rhyme and have the same meter. They make up a unit or complete thought. O, how I faint when I of you do write, Knowing a better spirit doth use your name, And in the praise thereof spends all his might, To make me tongue-tied, speaking of your fame! There lives more life in one of your fair eyes, Than both your poets can in praise devise.

Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein There is a place where the sidewalk ends And before the street begins, And there the grass grows soft and white, And there the sun burns crimson bright, And there the moon-bird rests from his flight To cool in the peppermint wind. Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black And the dark street winds and bends. Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow, And watch where the chalk-white arrows go To the place where the sidewalk ends. Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow, And we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go, For the children, they mark, and the children, they know The place where the sidewalk ends.
