Poetry Friday Period 4 & 5

How is poetry written? Rhyme Scheme Made up of rhythm i.e. abab Stressed or unstressed syllables Stanzas Lines When forty winters shall besiege thy brow, And dig deep trenches in thy beauty's field, Thy youth's proud livery so gazed on now, Will be a totter'd weed of small worth held: Then being asked, where all thy beauty lies, Where all the treasure of thy lusty days; To say, within thine own deep sunken eyes, Were an all-eating shame, and thriftless praise.

Different ways poetry is written: Sonnet Limerick Haiku Narrative Epic Couplet Free Verse

Sonnet Structural features Rhyme scheme Shakespeare loved them! When forty winters shall besiege thy brow, And dig deep trenches in thy beauty's field, Thy youth's proud livery so gazed on now, Will be a totter'd weed of small worth held: Then being asked, where all thy beauty lies, Where all the treasure of thy lusty days; To say, within thine own deep sunken eyes, Were an all-eating shame, and thriftless praise. How much more praise deserv'd thy beauty's use, If thou couldst answer 'This fair child of mine Shall sum my count, and make my old excuse,' Proving his beauty by succession thine! This were to be new made when thou art old, And see thy blood warm when thou feel'st it cold. Structural features 14 Lines 10 syllables per line Rhyme scheme abab-cdcd-efef-gg Shakespeare loved them! Usually love poems Usually written to someone Direct address is common

Narrative Poems Tells a story It may or may not rhyme There is a strong sense of narration, characters, and plot Structure Opening stanza – Introduce your character and create context Middle stanza/s – Write a stanza for each main point you wish to make about your character Closing stanza – Shows how your story ends

Epic Poems Some narrative poems are very long These are called “epic” poems Often they record the stories of great events or famous people

The Ballad Very common form of narrative poem Usually has a strong regular rhyme and rhythm Often put to music and sung Before news media, they were a favourite way of informing people about great events or people Examples: “The Highwayman” and “The Lady of Shallot”.

Free Verse The natural rhythms of ordinary speech Structured by their meaning The poets thoughts and emotions determine the flow of the verse Lack formal or definite pattern Rhyme is rarely used Patterns of sound such as assonance and alliteration are usually present Pg 50

Why poetry is written? Poem  Language and Ideas  Meaning How does it make us feel? Is the poet trying to protest about something? Is the poet trying to highlight a current social/political/economic issue? What are they trying to tell us?
