Poetry -> Form Refers to a poem’s structure, or the way the words are arranged on the page. All words in a poem are arranged into line. The length of the lines, where they break, and how they are punctuated add to the meaning and rhythm. A group of lines in a poem is known as a stanza (it’s like a paragraph in fiction).

Form Arranged into two categories: Traditional Organic

Examples of Traditional Poetry
