Presentation transcript:

Poetry Brings together sounds and words in unique, intriguing ways that may cause intense imagery and deep meaning in the reader.

Poetry Does NOT have to rhyme Creates meaning in just a few words. Creates images with words

Parts of Poems Line—a single line of words in a poem Stanza—a group of lines (kind of like a paragraph, but not indented) White space—spaces after lines or stanzas where the reader is meant to pause or be silent

Imagery Poets use colorful, vivid language and figures of speech to create clear pictures in the reader’s mind.

Rhythm Rhythm is a musical quality caused by stressed and unstressed syllables in a poem. a fast rhythm indicated action, excitement, tension, or suspense a slow rhythm suggests peacefulness, fullness, harmony, and comfort

Think about these questions as you hear the poem: What do you feel? What visual image do you create? What is the mood? Are there any words or phrases you especially liked? Does the poem remind you of anything in your life? What do you notice about the rhythm or cadence?

Snow Storm By Robert PatinsonRobert Patinson The land was white and freezing cold the snow had come and taken hold. A blizzard moved in from the north and told the flurries to go forth. A howling sound brings with it chills, frozen words drift through the hills. The trees wear coats of fluffy snow, the land’s so bright it seems to glow. Snowflakes drifted down from the sky whipped by the wind in swirls they fly. A light and freezing screen they form, the blizzard grows into a storm.

from This Desert is Theirs This is no place for anyone who wants soft hill and meadows and everything green green… This is for hawks that like only the loneliest canyons and lizards that run in the hottest sand and coyotes that choose the rockiest trails. It’s for them. And for birds that nest in cactus and sing out over a thousand thorns because they’re where they want to be. It’s for them. And for hard skinny plants that do without water for months at a time. --by Byrd Baylor
