Poetry – Lesson #1

What is poetry?  A type of literature that expresses ideas, feelings, or tells a story in a specific form (usually using lines and stanzas)

I'm glad to say my homework's done. I finished it last night. I've got it right here in this box. It's not a pretty sight. My dog chewed up my homework. He slobbered on it, too. So now my homework's ripped to shreds and full of slimy goo. It isn't much to look at, but I brought it anyway. I'm going to dump it on your desk if I don't get an A. My dog chewed up my homework By Bruce Lansky

Why write poetry? People write poetry for many different reasons: To express feelings To share ideas To say what they can’t say out loud To tell a story To set a mood

Mood and Feeling People write poems when they’re in a lot of different moods to express a lot of different feelings. Just like you have many moods- happy, sad, angry, funny- poetry expresses many different moods and feelings. Poems can be happy, sad, angry, romantic, or even funny

Point of view in poetry POET The poet is the author of the poem. SPEAKER The speaker of the poem is the “narrator” of the poem.

Poetry Form FORM – the way the words look on the page LINE - a group of words together on one line of the poem STANZA - a group of lines arranged together Hold fast to dreams For if dreams die Life is a broken-winged bird That cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams For when dreams go Life is a barren field Frozen with snow. Dreams by Langston Hughes Line { Stanza PoetTitle

Poetic Devices

What are poetic devices? Poets use poetic devices to make their poetry sound more interesting. Poetic devices include: Rhythm Rhyme and Rhyme Scheme Alliteration Onomatopoeia Repetition and Refrain

Rhythm The beat created by the sounds of the words in a poem Rhythm can be created by using poetic devices.

Rhyme 4 Poems do not have to rhyme, but many do 4 Words sound alike because they share the same ending vowel and consonant sounds. 4 (A word always rhymes with itself.) LAMP STAMP á Share the short “a” vowel sound á Share the combined “mp” consonant sound

End Rhyme A word at the end of one line rhymes with a word at the end of another line Hector the Collector Collected bits of string. Collected dolls with broken heads And rusty bells that would not ring.

Here’s an example in Spanish… From “Versos Sencillos” by José Martí Yo soy un hombre sincero De donde crece la palma, Y antes de morirme quiero Echar mis versos del alma. Yo vengo de todas partes, Y hacia todas partes voy: Arte soy entre las artes, En los montes, monte soy. Yo sé los nombres extraños De las yerbas y las flores, Y de mortales engaños, Y de sublimes dolores. See how the words at the end of every other line rhyme? This is end rhyme!

Internal Rhyme A word inside a line rhymes with another word on the same line. Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary. From “The Raven” by Edgar Allan Poe

Near Rhyme a.k.a imperfect rhyme, close rhyme The words share EITHER the same vowel or consonant sound BUT NOT BOTH ROSE LOSE á Different vowel sounds (long “o” and “oo” sound) á Share the same consonant sound

Rhyme Scheme A rhyme scheme is a pattern of rhyme (usually end rhyme, but not always). Use the letters of the alphabet to represent sounds to be able to visually “see” the pattern. (See next slide for an example.)

Let’s have a look…. SICK by Shel Silverstein "I cannot go to school today.“ Said little Peggy Ann McKay. I have the measles and the mumps, A gash, a rash, and purple bumps My mouth is wet, my throat is dry I’m going blind in my right eye. I cough and sneeze and gasp and choke, I’m sure that my left leg is broke. My nose is cold, my toes are numb, I have a splinter in my thumb. aabbccddeeaabbccddee

Onomatopoeia Words that imitate the sound they are naming BUZZ OR sounds that imitate another sound “The silken, sad, uncertain, rustling of each purple curtain...”

Alliteration Consonant sounds repeated at the beginnings of words If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, how many pickled peppers did Peter Piper pick? Sally sells seashells by the sunny seashore.

Alphabet Alliteration Every single word in the sentence begins with the same LETTER. Aardvarks attack anthills anxiously. Chimpanzees chatter cheerfully. Purple pandas paint pretty peculiar pictures.

Repetition and Refrain  A sound or word repeated regularly in a poem is called repetition  A phrase repeated regularly in a poem is called refrain “Quoth the raven, ‘Nevermore.’ ” Example of Refrain from Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Raven”
