No rules! Elements to consider: Beginning, middle, and end Word choice Punctuation: correct or incorrect? Why? Length of line: complete sentences? Clauses only? Enjambment? Visual shape of poem. Sound: musicality, rhyme, alliteration, and again, length of lines.

Show, don’t tell: Instead of ¨Sally was very sad,¨ describe what that sadness looks, feels, sounds like, etc.: ¨Sally dragged her feet across campus, head down, softly sniffling, her arms crossed tightly across her body.¨ Descriptive language, active verbs, simile, metaphor, personification.
