Poetry Devices, Structure, and Forms English 10

Poetry Devices Alliteration: The repetition of consonant sounds, generally at the beginning of words. Example: Sally sells sea-shells by the sea shore. Consonance: The repetition of consonant sounds within or at the end of words that do not rhyme or are preceded by different vowel sounds. Example: The clock struck twelve, and he was tickled with excitement as the ball dropped.

Poetry Devices (cont.) Assonance: The repetition of same or similar vowel sounds in words that are close together. Example: So long lives this, and this gives life to thee. Do you like blue?

Poetry Devices: 3 Types of Rhyme End Rhyme: The rhyming of words at the end of a line. Example: They could not excuse the sin. That was committed by his kin. Internal Rhyme: Rhyme that occurs within a single line of poetry. Example: No, baby, no, you may not go.” Slant Rhyme: Two words sound similar, but do not have a perfect rhyme. Example: The words jackal and buckle.

Poetry Devices Continued Diction: A writer’s choice of words; an important element in the writer’s voice or style. Denotation: The literal, dictionary meaning of a word. Example: The word “home” means, “the physical structure within which one lives, such as a house.” Connotation: The suggested or implied meanings associated with a word beyond its dictionary definition. Example: Words can have positive or negative connotations. The word “home” might suggest positive thoughts of comfort, family, protection, etc.

Poetry Devices (cont.) Repetition: The recurrence of sounds, words, phrases, lines or stanzas in a poem. Writers use repetition to emphasize an important point, to expand on an idea, to create rhythm, and to increase the unity of the work. Example: The repeated chorus of a song emphasizes the message of that song.

Poetry Devices (cont.) Onomatopoeia: The use of a word or phrase that imitates or suggests the sound of what it describes. Examples: Hiss, crack, swish, murmur, mew, buzz. Apostrophe: A literary device in which a speaker addresses an inanimate object, an idea, or an absent person. Example: Oh, mother, where would I be without your guidance!

Structure Items Speaker: The voice that communicates with the reader of a poem (like a narrator). Stanza: A group of lines forming a unit in a poem or a song. Line: The basic unit of poetry. The line is a word or a row of words (not a sentence that extends over to the next line, though). There are four structural poems you will need to know based on the number of lines.

Structural Items (continued) Four types of poems based on line number: Couplet: Consists of two lines. Quatrain: Consists of four lines. Sestet: Consists of six lines. Octave: Consists of eight lines.

Structural Items (continued) Rhyme Scheme: The pattern that end rhymes form in a stanza or poem. Rhyme scheme is designated by the assignment of a different letter of the alphabet to each new rhyme. Roses are red A Violets are blue B You stole my heart C Then were untrue B

Poetry Types Narrative Poem: A poem that tells a story. Narrative poems are usually contrasted with lyric poems. Lyric Poem: Poetry that expresses a speaker’s personal thoughts or feelings. Free Verse: Poetry that has no fixed pattern of meter, rhyme, line length, or stanza arrangement.

Poetry Types (cont.) Ode: A long, serious lyric poem that is elevated in tone and style. Some odes celebrate a person, an event, or even a power or object. Haiku: A traditional, nature-inspired Japanese form of poetry that has 3 lines and 17 syllables. Lines one and three are five syllables each. Line two is seven syllables. Sonnet: A lyric poem of 14 lines, typically written in iambic pentameter and following strict patterns of stanza division and rhyme.

Haiku Poems One thing haiku poems try to do is present imagery and details that try to convey a larger insight or meaning. For example, a writer is not simply describing a setting, but they are describing a setting to provide insight or a larger meaning.

Sample Haiku Poems Nature Haiku: Skies so azure blue Youthful hue makes my heart race Infinite blessing Person Haiku: Angry from day one Critical of all that’s fun You suffer the most Create a Haiku about nature or a favorite setting and create a haiku about a person or type of person.
