7 Types of Poetry Narrative Poetry – Poems that tell stories
Ballads – A poem(song) that tells a story typically about a major event. Epic – A long, elevated poem about a hero and his adventures; title is underlined. The Iliad and The Odyssey Lyric – Poems that express the poet’s emotion or thought about one person, place, thing, or event; usually structured. Free Verse – Poems that have no set rhythm, rhyme, or structure.

8 Poetry Elements -> Sound
Poets often express their poems using sounds in order to enhance the meaning, mood, or images present. Some examples of sounds are: Repetition – Repeated use of sounds used to appeal to emotions. Alliteration – Repetition of beginning consonant sounds. Assonance – Repetition of vowel sounds. Consonance – Repetition of consonant sounds. Onomatopoeia – The use of words that create the sounds they describe.

Imagery is used in poetry to illicit a response from the senses of the reader. Does not have to be visual. Can be literal. Example: I see a tall tree. Can be figurative. Example: The tree was like a child in a crowd of adults.
