  Odes can:  Celebrate  Commemorate  Meditate on people, events, or, in Neruda’s case, ordinary objects It’s not true that all poems are depressing!

 Excerpt from Percy Bysshe Shelley’s “Ode to the West Wind” O wild West Wind, thou breath of Autumn’s being, Thou, from whose unseen presence the leaves dead Are driven, like ghosts from an enchanter fleeing, Yellow, and black, and pale, and hectic red, Pestilence-stricken multitudes: O thou, Who chariotest to their dark wintry bed Example:

  Short lyric poems (lyric poems express thought or feelings rather than telling a story)  Stanzas of 2-4 lines  In the manner of the Roman poet Horace  intimate and reflective rather than celebratory and heroic  Often addressed to a friend and deal with friendship, love, and the practice of poetry.

  An extract from 'Ode to a Nightingale' by John Keats ( )  My heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains (A) My sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk, (B) Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains (A) One minute past, and Lethe-wards had sunk: (B) 'Tis not through envy of the happy lot, (C) But being too happy in thy happiness,- (D) That thou, light-winged Dryad of the trees, (E) In some melodious plot (C) Of beechen green, and shadows numberless, (D) Singest of summer in full-throated ease. (E) Example:
